    Here in Indonesia, there are tremendous unmet medical needs within a vast population which we at MSD hope to help address through our innovative medicines and vaccines.The five key therapeutic areas we are focused upon in the region are also very relevant to Indonesia: cardiovascular, diabetes, infectious disease, vaccines, and women's health.The Indonesian government has a far-ranging vision to increase access to healthcare for more Indonesians, with the ultimate aim of universal health coverage. At MSD, we look forward to engaging in a constructive dialogue with the government, as well as healthcare professionals, key opinion leaders, payers, and patient groups to determine how we each play our part and collectively contribute to attainment of this goal.In Indonesia, MSD operates three legal entities: PT MSD Indonesia, PT Merck Sharp Dohme Pharma Tbk., and PT Intervet Indonesia.

Human health products are all ethical/prescription medicines in therapeutic areas such as cardiovascular, diabetes, pain, vaccines, women's health, hepatology, oncology, repiratory, and dermatology. While animal health products consist of vaccines, anti bacteria, and reproductive hormones.MSD in Indonesia established its business when two leading pharmaceutical companies, Schering Plough and Merck & Co.Inc undertook joint operation in 2009.
