World Cancer Day 2016

2015 was a challenging year for everyone and that includes those involved in the fight against cancer. Last year we learned that about half of Malaysian cancer patients go bankrupt a year after their diagnosis. This year, in conjunction with World Cancer Day on February 4th, we spoke to Farahida Mohd Farid from the National Cancer Council (MAKNA) to get the latest updates on news concerning cancer.
