Image
Cadbury Malaysia, under the global food company Mondelēz International, has launched its all-new Cadbury Zip. This delightful snack comes with an improved, mouth-watering new recipe as part of the brand’s strategy to refine their line of products.

Once appointment made and when near to the date, the friendly nurse will call or whatsapp you to remind you on the appointment and ask whether you need the letter to travel if your house is located more than 10km from the clinic.
