Malankara Orthodox Church says ‘no' to joint declaration in Kerala
KOTTAYAM: In a clear indication that peace remains elusive among the warring Jacobite and Orthodox factions of the Malankara Church, the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church (MOSC) on Tuesday condemned the joint declaration issued by the heads of three Oriental Orthodox Churches in the Middle East on Sunday. While it welcomed the peace mediation efforts initiated by the heads, the MOSC denounced the other aspects in the joint declaration, which endorsed the decision of the Universal Holy Synod of the Syrian Orthodox Church of Antioch to refrain from participating in any liturgical celebration and formal theological dialogues with the Orthodox faction. The MOSC said the decision was made by a regional assembly of leaders of three Oriental Orthodox Churches in the Middle East, which lacked legitimacy, and contended that the leaders were misled by the Syrian Orthodox Church of Antioch. 'The Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, Armenian Apostolic Church of Etchmiadzin, Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church and the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church were not involved in the joint declaration. Apart from local groups and pan-Oriental dialogue platforms, there is no single representative body that speaks for all Oriental Orthodox Churches,' said the MOSC's Inter-Church Ecumenical Relations department.

Public-private collaboration crucial for accessible eye care
KUALA LUMPUR: The responsibility of safeguarding Malaysia's eye care is a shared endeavour, said Bandar Tun Razak member of parliament Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail. The wife of the Prime Minister said both public and private hospitals play a crucial role as caretakers of eye health, ensuring that quality eye care is accessible to all. 'This collective effort strengthens our ability to provide world-class ophthalmology services, bridging gaps in accessibility and bringing vision care closer to communities in need,' she said when officiating the Malaysian Ophthalmology Scientific Congress (MOSC) 2025 here today. Noting that Malaysia has achieved a significant milestone in ophthalmology practice, Wan Azizah said the National Eye Survey III, conducted in 2023, reported a dramatic reduction in the prevalence of blindness in earmarked regions across the country. She said the survey recorded a decrease from 1.6 per cent to 0.8 per cent in the eastern regions, and from 2.1 per cent to 0.6 per cent in Sarawak, reflecting the nation's progress in enhancing eye care services. 'It is truly impressive to see progress in achievements and advancements in this field spearheaded by the young of today, a testament to the power of innovation, determination and community-focused care,' she said. The former deputy prime minister said the National Eye Database (NED), established in 2002, has been instrumental in this journey, empowering ophthalmologists to make evidence-based decisions that continually improve patient outcomes. Wan Azizah said the data-driven approach earned Malaysia the honour of hosting the World Health Organisation/ International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) meeting on cataract surgery outcomes in 2018, describing it as a proud moment that highlighted the country's leadership in global eye care standards. On the MOSC, she said the three-day congress, themed 'United We Stand: One Vision for Malaysia,' which began yesterday, brings together a distinguished assembly of professionals from both public and private healthcare sectors to share knowledge and discuss strategies to improve the future of eye care in Malaysia. At the event, Wan Azizah was presented with the Lifetime Achievement in Ophthalmology 2025 Award in recognition of her outstanding contributions to the field, having previously served as an ophthalmologist from 1978 to 1993.

Strengthen public-private ties to advance eye health, Wan Azizah urges
