Because the LAMTTO DC22 supports 4G LTE cellular networks, it enables real-time remote monitoring. The “UBoxPro” smartphone app allows users to easily access live images, playback videos, conduct remote two-way conversations, and track the vehicle’s location anytime, anywhere.

Indonesia’s Legacy in the Global Vaccine Landscape, Bio Farma and DCVMN Strengthen Health Resilience Through Global Partnership

BANDUNG, Indonesia, Oct. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Through PT Bio Farma (Persero), Indonesia has played a strategic and sustained role in the Developing Countries Vaccine Manufacturers’ Network (DCVMN), working to ensure equitable access to safe, high-quality, and affordable vaccines. Since DCVMN’s founding in 2000, Bio Farma has been a key driver in advancing vaccine self-reliance and public health capacity in developing countries.

As Chair of DCVMN 2023–2025, Bio Farma highlights Indonesia’s contribution to global vaccine innovation, equitable access, and health security, underscoring its commitment to collaboration among developing countries
As Chair of DCVMN 2023–2025, Bio Farma highlights Indonesia’s contribution to global vaccine innovation, equitable access, and health security, underscoring its commitment to collaboration among developing countries

Collaboration between Bio Farma and DCVMN has been established since the inception of the network. At the first DCVMN Annual General Meeting in Noordwijk in 2000, Bio Farma was one of ten founding members dedicated to advancing vaccine collaboration. In April 2001, Bio Farma in Bandung hosted the 2nd AGM, where the network formalized the DCVMN’s structure and governance. Chaired by then-President Director Thamrin Poeloengan, this meeting established Indonesia as a hub for vaccine collaboration and knowledge-sharing among developing countries.

Shadiq Akasya, current President Director of Bio Farma, stated that the company’s participation in DCVMN reflects Indonesia’s commitment to contributing to global health beyond national interests.

Bio Farma’s involvement in DCVMN since its establishment is not merely about representation, but about making a tangible contribution toward global vaccine self-reliance. Through collaboration and innovation, we are committed to delivering equitable and sustainable health solutions for all,” said Shadiq.

“We believe that the true strength of the developing countries’ vaccine industry lies in collaboration. Through our active role in DCVMN, we aim to ensure that every nation has access to safe, high-quality, and affordable vaccines, a real manifestation of Indonesia’s contribution to global health security,” he added.

In 2004, Bio Farma, together with other DCVMN members, played a vital role in expanding access to the pentavalent (DPT-HepB-Hib) vaccine through a technology-transfer collaboration with the Netherlands Vaccine Institute. This achievement demonstrated that Bio Farma’s contributions within the DCVMN network are not symbolic but deeply technical and practical.

Global trust in Bio Farma has continued to grow. In 2012, Indonesia once again hosted the 13th DCVMN AGM in Bali. Mahendra Suhardono, one of Bio Farma’s directors at the time, was elected President of the Executive Committee for the 2013 – 2014 term.

Indonesia’s leadership was further recognized when Bio Farma was entrusted to serve as Chair of the Board of DCVMN for the 2023-2025 period, acting as a bridge between network members and global strategic priorities, while showcasing Indonesia’s capacity to lead the vaccine industry in developing countries.

Bio Farma’s commitment to innovation goes far beyond collaboration. In 2020, its nOPV2 vaccine became the first to receive an Emergency Use Listing from the World Health Organization, enabling faster deployment of vaccines during global health emergencies. This achievement reflected not only Bio Farma’s scientific and technical excellence but also effective coordination and communication among multiple international stakeholders, including funders, scientists, academic researchers, policymakers, global vaccine advocates, and vaccine manufacturers. Such collaboration enabled the rapid development, approval, and rollout of nOPV2 during a critical moment for global public health.

This milestone demonstrated that a developing-country manufacturer can achieve world-class innovation, meeting the highest international standards of safety, quality, and efficacy recognized by the WHO. Beyond being a scientific breakthrough, nOPV2 represents technological self-reliance and global confidence in Indonesia’s capability to contribute meaningfully to international health security. Bio Farma’s success serves as an inspiration to all DCVMN members to continue strengthening their research, development, and production capacity in pursuit of achieving vaccine self-sufficiency and global health resilience across developing countries.

With a production capacity of more than 3.5 billion doses per year, Bio Farma supplies vaccines to over 150 countries and holds WHO Prequalification certification for 12 types of vaccines. As the Center of Excellence for the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in vaccine development, production, and distribution, Bio Farma continues to strengthen Indonesia’s strategic role in the global health landscape.

The upcoming 26th DCVMN Annual General Meeting, to be held in Bali on 29–31 October 2025, marks an important moment for Indonesia to reaffirm its leadership in global health diplomacy. Through this forum, Bio Farma is committed to advancing innovation, collaboration, and vaccine self-reliance worldwide, toward a more resilient and equitable global health ecosystem.

The visit builds on government-to-government engagement between MHTC and ROP that began in January 2025, when both organisations first discussed structured healthcare collaboration to address the medical needs of Omani security personnel and their families. This familiarisation programme represents the next phase of that partnership, providing ROP leadership with direct assessment of Malaysian healthcare infrastructure and international patient services.

The programme included familiarisation visits to KPJ Damansara Specialist Hospital 2, Prince Court Medical Centre, PERKESO Rehabilitation Centre Tun Abdul Razak (Melaka), and Sunway Medical Centre. During these visits, ROP officers met with hospital leadership to discuss referral pathways, international patient services, and areas of collaboration in clinical training, fellowship opportunities, and doctor exchange programmes. These initiatives aim to strengthen professional development and medical expertise between Malaysia and Oman, fostering long-term partnerships in healthcare excellence. The visit concluded with a networking dinner hosted by His Excellency Sheikh Alabbas Bin Ibrahim Alharthi, Ambassador of the Sultanate of Oman to Malaysia.

Malaysia’s healthcare system delivers clinical excellence with efficient patient facilitation and care coordination,” said Suriaghandi Suppiah, Chief Executive Officer of MHTC. “This visit demonstrates our readiness to support Omani patients and strengthens our government-to-government cooperation. Since our initial engagement with ROP in January, we have worked to create practical pathways for Omani security personnel to access Malaysian healthcare services.”

“This visit has given us direct insight into Malaysia’s healthcare capabilities and patient coordination systems. The clinical expertise we observed at these hospitals, combined with the structured approach to international patient care, confirms Malaysia’s capacity to support our medical needs. We look forward to strengthening this partnership and establishing clear referral pathways for our personnel and their families,” said Brigadier Dr Naseer Al-Manthery, Director General of Medical Services for Security Services, Royal Oman Police.

The visit precedes Malaysia Healthcare Week in Oman, scheduled from 29 October to 5 November 2025, where MHTC will promote Malaysian healthcare services to Omani patients and stakeholders. MHTC remains committed to serving as a comprehensive one-stop centre for international patient referrals, coordinating seamless access to Malaysia’s network of MHTC member hospitals and specialised medical services. This commitment forms a core pillar of the Malaysia Year of Medical Tourism (MYMT) 2026 campaign, which will showcase Malaysia’s integrated approach to international patient care and strengthen the nation’s position as a premier global healthcare destination.

The agreement marks an important milestone in the cooperation between Vietnam and Democratic Republic of the Congo, reflecting the shared vision of both sides toward sustainable development and improving quality of life for residents.

Under the MoU, the two sides will jointly explore and develop a riverfront mega-urban project covering approximately 6,300 hectares, while gradually converting more than 300,000 gasoline-powered vehicles to electric vehicles, and establishing a comprehensive electric bus network and charging infrastructure.

The project is located between the southern bank of the Congo River and the northern area of N’djili International Airport – a strategic site in the city’s expansion plan. The project is expected to include residential zones, villas, apartments, hospitals, schools, shopping centers, hotels, entertainment complexes, as well as a future administrative district for government ministries and agencies.

The development aims to create a modern new urban center that will serve Kinshasa’s residents while becoming a tourist destination and a symbol of the city’s progress. The city will allocate the land to Vingroup free of charge.

In addition to real estate, both parties agreed to expand cooperation into green transportation projects, including the development of electric bus and taxi systems, and EV charging infrastructure operated by VinFast and GSM.

VinFast will provide suitable vehicle models to support Kinshasa’s plan to gradually replace more than 300,000 fossil-fueled vehicles with EVs. The company will also explore the supply of VinFast electric buses and support the establishment and operation of electric Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) routes. The city has committed to providing land for charging infrastructure to accelerate the city’s green transition

Speaking at the signing ceremony, Mr. Daniel Bumba Lubaki, Governor of Kinshasa, emphasized: “We welcome Vingroup’s presence in Kinshasa. We have witnessed firsthand the remarkable achievements Vingroup has made in Vietnam and many other countries around the world. With its extensive international experience in urban development, housing, and infrastructure, we believe this partnership will mark a significant milestone — paving the way for a more modern, sustainable, and vibrant urban future for the people of Kinshasa.”

Ms. Le Thi Thu Thuy, Vice Chairwoman of Vingroup, shared: “Vingroup is delighted to partner with the Government of Kinshasa in this mission to enhance the quality of life for its people. With extensive experience in developing world-class mega-urban projects and advancing an electrified mobility network, we believe our collaboration will help transform the city’s landscape and foster sustainable development in both the capital and across the Democratic Republic of the Congo.”

Kinshasa is the capital and largest city of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with a population of approximately 17 million. It is the political, economic, and cultural center of the country and one of the fastest-growing cities in Africa.

Vingroup is Vietnam’s largest private multi-sector conglomerate, perating across five core pillars: Industrials & Technology, Real Estate & Services, Infrastructure, Green Energy, and Social Enterprises, with the vision “For a better life for everyone.”

With its proven reputation, scale, and capabilities, Vingroup is steadily expanding its presence on the global stage. Recently, Vingroup was recognized by TIME Magazine (USA) in its “TIME World’s Best Companies 2025” list – ranking among the Top 1000 global companies for its outstanding achievements in sustainability, innovation, and global impact.
