Malaysian satellite operator MEASAT and healthcare technology company Mudah Healthtech announced on Friday they have expanded their Sihat Xpress telehealth service to two new rural villages in Sabah.

New Sihat Xpress telehealth kiosks have been launched in the villages of Kg Manikulau near Ranau and Kg Bonor near Sook, in partnership with the Sabah State Treasury Department.

The kiosks, which are connected to MEASAT’s “CONNECTme NOW” satellite broadband service, provide an essential healthcare link for nearly 1,000 residents across both villages, their surrounding neighbours, and the local school.

MEASAT said the kiosks empower villagers to manage their daily health through guided self-care tools and on-demand doctor consultations. Both villages are up to two hours of travel away from the nearest health clinics in Ranau and Sook.

MEASAT and Mudah [signed an MoU to launch the Sihat Xpress telehealth service in May 2024](https://developingtelecoms.com/telecom-business/humanitarian-communications/16717-measat-and-mudah-launch-telehealth-kiosks-for-rural-malaysia.html), with the goal of using CONNECTme NOW hotspots to provide digital healthcare services for up to 1 million people in unserved and underserved rural and remote communities.

MEASAT and Mudah also agreed to digitalise clinics in those areas with telehealth capabilities, enabling at least 1,000 doctors to support up to 2,000 Sihat Xpress rural telehealth kiosks to be rolled out at CONNECTme NOW sites over a two-year period.

MEASAT said the Sihat Xpress service is currently being rolled out across Sabah, Sarawak and Peninsular Malaysia, with over 1,000 clinics having been digitalised since 2024 under the Madani MSME Digital Grant.
