Life and Executive Coaching with NLP: Malaysia's getting obese

The numbers scream at you - the rate of obesity in Malaysia increased from around 20% to 40% in just one decade. A huge jumb, if the numbers can be trusted (hm - I still see so many slim Malaysians, how?).

The great part in Malaysia is that the food is really, really, one of the best in the world. Heck, I miss the rice (nasi) and curry, when I am in Germany. The beauty of the food is that often, different types of dishes are mixed. Like, German food Malaysianised. Get the picture?
I would actually say that if there is one major trait that combines all Malaysia, it is the food culture.

Now, the government is planning to ban ads advertising fastfood, or impose a sin tax on fast food. Now, how do you define fast food, is my first question?
Then, what about other food that is also contributing to obesity, such as Teh Tarik, or Nasi Lemak? (these are Malaysian drinks and Malaysian dishes).

Isn't it the culture that supports the food intake? Look at any of the Malaysian festivals, such as Hari Raya or Chinese New Year? House-to-house visits are common and encouraged - and what happens then is that visitors are offered food. It is not necessarily polite to say no to the offer.
I don't believe an ad ban will work.

In fact I believe it is a case of misplace responsibility. Look - isn't it the responsibility of the individual to take care of their food intake? Execise regularly? Eat vegetables and do something that contributes to healthy lifesyle?

What do you think? Do you think you live health-conscious? Do you see it as your responsibility or do you think it is the government, who has to take care of this?

In the end, it all boils down, as well, how you do what you do in your mind, really. And we teach you this in the NLP Practitioner course that is coming soon again. Read up on it in the brochure, okay and sign up for the courses now?
