Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. Malaysia is no stranger to dealing with obesity, and we’ve also been named the most obese nation in the region. In conjunction with World Obesity Day, we take a look at what we’ve been doing to tackle obesity, and what more can be done. We take a closer look at the role of our environment, and whether it is geared towards encouraging active lifestyles among Malaysians. Joining the show are Dr Feisul Idzwan Mustapha, Consultant Public Health Physician and Deputy Director, Non-Communicable Disease Section, Disease Control Division, Ministry of Health, and Ar. Mustapha Kamal Zulkarnain, urban architect.
