The 21st Biennial Congress of the APOA will be heldon 29 to 31July 2021 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, Malaysia. The Organising Committee has planned this as a hybrid of both physical and virtual conference. The decision for a hybrid congress is made because of the ongoing uncertainties with the COVID-19 pandemic. At this hybrid Congress, we willprovide a platform for all the specialties of orthopaedic surgery to come together to enable senior surgeons to impart their expertise, junior surgeons to learn and debate issues and most importantly for the fraternity to network and renew acquaintances. The Scientific Committee, including the Chairmen of the APOA Subspecialty Sections as well as local coordinators, has planned for keynote addresses, plenary lectures, symposia, live workshops as well as opportunities for the participants to present their research work and promises a stimulating and rewarding experience.
