Keep up the fight against Aedes


I SERVED as a medical officer for many years in Penang before I went abroad. I’m back now to live the rest of my life quietly and peacefully here. However, I am concerned about the frequent outbreaks of dengue fever.

Remember the catchphrase “Tiada Aedes, tiada dengue” and the public awareness attempts in the past to get the public to prevent the spread of the disease?
