YONG PENG: The “Health Fiesta” event at the Yong Peng District Council’s field along Jalan Templer saw townsfolk and residents from the surrounding villages coming in for free health checks and to learn more about taking care of their health.

Aside from normal health services such as testing for blood pressure and blood sugar, the Health Fiesta, organised by the Batu Pahat District Health Department, also saw women’s health concerns being addressed with a mobile mammography unit by the National Cancer Council of Malaysia (Makna) being made available there.
