Welcome Message

Dear Friends & Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to invite you to the 10th Association of Southeast Asian Pain Societies (ASEAPS) Congress which will be held in Singapore from 2nd to 4th May 2025. The Congress is organised by the Pain Association of Singapore, with support from our sister chapters, Indonesian Pain Society, Malaysian Association for the Study of Pain, Myanmar Society for the Study of Pain, Pain Society of the Philippines, and Thai Association for the Study of Pain.

With the theme, “From Pain to Empowerment”, our Scientific Chairs have put up an exciting program which will galvanise participants in the furtherment of pain care for our patients, be it pain management, training or research.

There will be symposiums and pre-congress workshops for allied health practitioners, doctors and nurses, with topics ranging from physical therapies, psychological therapies, interventional pain management, complementary therapies, to wider domains such as musculoskeletal pain, cancer pain, building interdisciplinary care, training, research and many more.

I look forward to meeting you at the Congress on the sunny island of Singapore!

Yours faithfully,

Dr Ong Say Yang
President, ASEAPS
President, The Pain Association of Singapore
