The Malaysian Parkinson’s Disease Association (MPDA) is a non-governmental and patient-based organization that was established on 12th September 1994. It was the first support group for people with Parkinson’s and their caregivers in Malaysia, and the third of its kind in Asia after Japan and Hong Kong at the time of its incorporation.

The association was initially registered as the Parkinson’s Disease of Selangor and Federal Territory (PERSATUAN PARKINSON SELANGOR DAN WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN). In 1996, the name of the association was changed to Malaysian Parkinson’s Disease Association (PERSATUAN PARKINSON MALAYSIA) to be more representative of the Parkinson community of Malaysia. It was officially launched on 6th April 1996 by the then Minister of Health of Malaysia, YB Dato’ Chua Jui Meng.

The main objectives of MPDA are:

  • To promote educational and emotional support to people with Parkinson’s and their families
  • To promote self-management of their Parkinson’s condition by patients and their families, consistent with the best medical advice
  • To facilitate the provision of suitable professional help and advice to people with Parkinson and their families

MPDA provides health education for people with Parkinson’s and their caregivers, moral support for people with Parkinson’s and their caregivers, and up-to-date and reliable information on the various health services available in Malaysia for people with Parkinson’s/caregivers.

The association is located at its own premises, a single-storey corner lot terrace house located in Happy Gardens, Old Klang Road, Kuala Lumpur since October 2005. This is a place which they call their “Parkinson Center”.
