KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 16 — The Health Ministry is targeting at least 10 million Malaysia to remain healthy in the next 10 years, its minister Khairy Jamaluddin said.
He said the target is included in the Health White Paper, which is expected to be tabled in Parliament in December.“So the central theme is how we can create a system with quality services and preventive measures to ensure 10 million people remain healthy in the next 10 years. “We are aiming for that figure because based on our rough estimate, one million Malaysians become sick every year due to many conditions that we can actually avoid,” he told a press conference after appearing as a panellist in the Policy Dialogue session entitled “The Future of Our Healthcare at the Health Policy Summit 2022” here today.
Elaborating, he said the target meant that 10 million Malaysians would not be referred to hospitals due to diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, high cholesterol and so on. — Bernama
