Hi, can an HIV positive person study in Malaysia?

Hi there

This website has the best info on HIV restrictions in other countries. The link is for Malaysia:
HIVtravel.org

In case things have changed, perhaps email an HIV organisation in Malaysia such as KLASS.

Hello Max and thanks for getting in touch.

As we are based in the UK, I am not sure of the conditions for work in Malaysia

I would suggest using their website for more information or contacting them to ask your questions

If you are not sure about the confidentiality perhaps ask them which conditions would classify someone as medically unfit

I would like to enquire confidentially regarding medical screening policy for international PhD research candidates who are on stable long-term treatment for a chronic condition. If a PhD candidate is on stable ART with undetectable viral load, does EMGS automatically classify the student as medically unfit.
