We need to change how we consume


THERE is a dichotomy in the way we address the cost of living issue. Take a look, for instance, at sugar consumption where the price of sugar is controlled through regulation.

On the one hand, sugar consumption is incentivised through subsidies. On the other hand, we are faced with an increasingly overweight and obese population susceptible to Malaysia’s No.1 public health enemy, noncommunicable diseases.
