Parkway, owned by the Malaysian sovereign fund Khazana backed IHH Healthcare Berhand, is planning to add about 4,000-5,000 beds in the next couple of years and half of this capacity addition will be in India, said Dr Tan See Leng, managing director and chief executive officer of both Parkway Panthai and IHH Healthcare.
