Malaysia Blog

I'm starting an anti-fast-food campaign.This is probably just one insignificant blog but I truly believe fast food are silent killers in Malaysia. Let's shine a spotlight on this hidden menace and be more conscious and aware of it.

 

Malaysia wants to help its people kick the fast-food habit.Officials are considering a ban on fast-food advertisements during children's television shows, as part of a campaign encouraging Malaysians to develop healthier habits, like exercising and eating nutritious food.They say almost 40 percent of the country's population is obese, up from 20 percent ten years ago.The fast food industry says it's willing to work with the government in its campaign. A spokesman for McDonald's in Malaysia says the industry isn't likely to suffer any financial impact as long as the ban doesn't bar all advertising. He says some Malaysians head to McDonald's for a meal an average of more than twice a month.

" Isn't likely to suffer any financial impact" ??

 

 

Good!! So they won't mind if we kick up the notch and launch an anti fast food campaign over the net too! :) 

Feel free to use the Tak Nak pictures anywhere on your blog if you support this campaign. I actually think that these fast food are worse than cigarrettes. I mean, you don't see many young kids smoking but I'm sure there are hundreds of thousand Malaysian kids taking fast food everyday.

Allowing big fast food companies to sponsor kids' shows and cartoons aren't helping either!

I'm glad the government is taking notice. But let us be proactive ourselves and stop taking fast food.

Or at least use moderation and reduce eating it to at least maybe the one or two rare occasion. That's what I'm going to do anyway. Dying of heart attack is tragic and definitely not finger licking good!!
