Stalwart’s call to defend future generations


PETALING JAYA: The fight against tobacco is not just about eliminating a habit; it’s about safeguarding our future generations, says NV Subbarow (pic), a stalwart of Malaysia’s anti-­smoking movement.

As an education officer with the Consumers Association of Penang, Subbarow has spent nearly 35 years championing tobacco control, recently earning the presti­gious Tobacco Control Icon Award from the Health Ministry during the 2025 National Tobacco Control Conference and the national-level World No Tobacco Day celebration.
