The prevalence of obesity in developing countries like Malaysia is still on the upward trend, said Datin Paduka Dr Santha Kumari, chairman of the Selangor branch of the Malaysian Diabetes Association.
She said the matter should be viewed seriously as it could lead to various complications, including type 2 diabetes cases.
?Malaysia is leading in the prevalence of obesity among Southeast Asian countries. Almost one in two Malaysians are either overweight or obese, placing them at a high risk for diabetes,? Dr Santha Kumari told a press conference, here, today.
