HPV Vaccination

INTRODUCTION

National Cancer Society Malaysia’s (NCSM) HPV vaccination programme, “Leaving No One Behind: Eliminating Cervical Cancer in Malaysia,” targets males and females aged 13 to 26 from underserved and rural communities who have not yet been immunised. The mission is to eliminate cervical cancer, the third most common cancer among women in Malaysia, by leveraging the protective benefits of the HPV vaccine.

NCSM has secured an in-kind donation of 300,000 doses of HPV vaccine to be used to complement the Ministry of Health’s teenage school vaccination initiative and focus on communities from various marginalised groups, including:

• Orang Asal and Orang Asli communities
• Single mothers
• Girls in reform centres and prisons
• Primary school leavers
• B40 households
• Disabled individuals at home
• Remote communities
• Groups not covered by the local Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia offices

The goal is to ensure all males and females from these underprivileged groups are immunised. 

Out of the 300,000 doses, Hibiscus Petrouleum has contributed a total of RM207,000 to fund the vaccination for 6,000 doses within our areas of operations in Sabah, Kelantan and Terengganu. This CSR programme is in line with the Group’s commitment to raise awareness on HPV and ensure that the underprivileged communities are immunised. Our participation in this programme began in May 2024 and continued until 1 July 2025 NCSM has successfully achieved its goal of administering all 30,000 vaccine doses including our sponsorship of 6,000 does by end of the programme period.
