At this health awareness campaign, there were screening clinics to screen obesity, hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidaemia to all who visited the mall on that day. Cancer awareness booths were also available to address issues related to cancer and empowering the knowledge for early suspicion and prevention. At the same event, we organised a blood donation campaign in cooperation with Blood Bank Hospital Kluang. Our enthusiastic team, including Semester 10 students from Kluang and Batu Pahat, faculty members and corporate staff started the event at 10 am, with a formal inauguration by Dr Chin Pek Woon, Head of Department of Internal Medicine Hospital Kluang along with Batu-Pahat campus faculty Prof Mohamed Rifdy and A/Prof Ramji Narayanan.
