Families living at PPRs cannot afford to buy fruits and vegetables and turn to processed food instead.
ALMOST 100% of the residents in people’s housing projects (PPRs) in Kuala Lumpur are not consuming enough fruits and vegetables, according to a study by RTI International, an independent non-profit research institute.
Its Better Health Programme lead Dr Lim Shiang Cheng said 96.5% of adults interviewed at six PPRs from August to December 2020 said they could not afford fruits and vegetables.
