Their ‘Healthier
Malaysians, Stronger Malaysia’ campaign today
With the recognition of the six-person lineup
of Local Heroes at a virtual event,
After three weeks of receiving nominations of admirable
individuals across Malaysia
From members of the public.
This campaign was launched under
Mead Johnson Nutrition’s new adult nutrition brand –
PROVITAL Immuna Plus in an initiative
Tto help support the immune health of the local heroes
Who are doing extraordinary things to
make a difference to the communities.
The virtual event was officiated by
Y.A.M. Tengku Datin
Paduka Setia Zatashah Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah,
Princess of Selangor in conjunction
with Malaysia Day.
The ‘Healthier Malaysians, Stronger Malaysia’ campaign
Aims to celebrate and honour the ordinary Malaysians
Who have stepped up to bring about positive community impact through their initiatives or cause.
The local heroes who were identified and nominated are
Kuan Chee Heng or fondly known as Uncle Kentang,
Adrian Pereira, Esther Chit, Aunty Jenny, Har Yin Geong, and Siamy Tan
Brings to light the many good
initiatives carried out by our fellow Malaysians.
It is a celebration of values and the true
Malaysian ‘can-do’ spirit demonstrated by many.
I am truly proud of our local heroes,
Those
known and many, many more unknown.
This is the step in the right direction as we create
greater awareness of the plight of others
And how companies like Mead Johnson and broader
community can help.
It is encouraging to see that Malaysians remain undeterred by their age
And the pandemic in their efforts to help and support each other.
I hope that this campaign
and the stories of these Local Heroes
Will encourage more Malaysians to participate in social
work or support existing initiatives,
But at the same time,
Practice good lifestyle habits to
remain healthy during this challenging time,”
Shared Y.A.M. Tengku Zatashah.
“Mead Johnson Nutrition has always been a proponent of healthy bodies and communities.
We are inspired by the amazing efforts of these Local Heroes
Who have selflessly contributed
to the Malaysian society.
Hence in line with PROVITAL Immuna Plus’ vision
To nurture
healthier Malaysians,
We would like to value these heroes by supporting their health.
While
many may have supported these heroes in various ways,
Let us not forget to take care of our
heroes’ health as well,
So they have a stronger and healthier body to continue their mission in
helping the communities.
We are also pleased to collaborate with Yayasan Food Bank
Malaysia by contributing
1,000 packs of PROVITAL Immuna Plus containing nutrients
To
support the immune health of families in need
To make sure they stay healthy in these
challenging times,”
Said Gonzalo Balcazar,
General Manager of Mead Johnson Nutrition
Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam.
“We want to create a platform for Malaysians
To support one another by
advocating for good health,
Especially in promoting strong immune system.
This is possible
through our nutritious adult milk,
PROVITAL Immuna Plus,
With its unique Triple Immunity
Protection proposition from nutrients
Such as yeast beta-glucan, selenium and vitamin C.
Our
efforts support the belief of 45% of respondents in our recent survey
Who believe that nutrition
is a key factor for a strong immunity.
In addition,
51% of Malaysian adults choose nutritional
products to support their health.
With these factors in mind,
We want to offer support for the
health of our everyday heroes
So that they can focus on carrying out their initiatives with
confidence.”
“It is encouraging to see that Malaysians are going the extra mile
To support each other
especially during the current situation,
Without neglecting their own health and wellbeing.
The
public needs to understand that social work can impact our bodies
And there should be more
awareness
About importance of maintaining good health and strong immunity.
I hope that
more Malaysians will emulate these Local Heroes
By taking care of themselves and the people
around them,”
Dr. Kent Woo Chee Keen,
Consultant Physician, Allergist and Immunologist of
Gleneagles Hospital Kuala Lumpur shares.
