Abstract:  Population growth has intensified the nation’s vulnerability to the health impacts of climate change. The demand for water, food, energy, and healthcare services increases as the population increases, placing pressure on natural resources and infrastructure. Climate change resulted in increased prevalence of vector-borne diseases (e.g., dengue and malaria), water- and food-borne infections, respiratory diseases associated with air pollution and haze, and heat-related morbidity and mortality, thus increase the demand for healthcare services. Conclusion, population growth intensifies vulnerability to climate-related health impacts, placing greater demands on public health systems. Strengthening adaption strategies, enhance surveillance system, and intersectoral collaboration is essential to ensure a resilient health system capable of protecting communities in a changing climate.

Abstract:  WRMSDs are a major global occupational health issue, causing 159M YLDs and 162M DALYs (2021). In Malaysia, MSDs contribute 86,340 YLDs and 112,378 DALYs, yet remain underreported despite being the second most common occupational disease. The manufacturing sector (23% of GDP) accounts for 40.4% of WRMSDs cases, driven by awkward posture, static loading, force exertion, and repetitive tasks. Global prevalence ranges 25-46% commonly affecting the shoulders, back, neck, and wrists. The objectives of this study are to determine the prevalence of WRMSDs among manufacturing workers in Malaysia and to identify individual, occupational biomechanical, and organisational factors associated with WRMSDs. Conlcusion, WRMSDs affected 8,7% of manufacturing workers, with force exertion, static posture, and limited OSH information emerging as key modifiable risks. Strengthening ergonomic controls and OSH comuunication, supported by improved national surveillance systems, is essential to reduce the WRMSDs burden in Malaysia’s manufacturing sector.

Abstract:  The PEKERTI program was introduced by the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development (KPWKM) through the National Population and Family Development Board (LPPKN) starting in 2009. Its main purpose is to produce individuals who are knowledgeable and have positive attitudes in reproductive and social health aspects. The National Reproductive and Social Health Education Policy and Action Plan (PEKERTI) 2022-2025 has improved the PEKERTI program until introducing the National PEKERTI program in 2025. The objective of the study is to measure the effectiveness of the program using the 4-stage Kirkpatrick Model. In conclusion, the program is effective in increasing knowledge, confidence, and commitment, but the effect is still moderate. Future focus is to increase involvement, satisfaction and interactive activities for better learning effects. Follow-up interventions after the program can close the gap between knowledge and practice (confidence & commitment).

Abstract:  Marriage is often seen as a milestone in life, yet many young adults today are choosing—or feeling compelled—to delay it. This episode of the KASIH Lensa Keluarga Podcast explores the timely question, Kahwin Lewat: Pilihan atau Tekanan? Is the decision shaped by career ambitions, emotional readiness, or the weight of societal expectations? Bringing together both professional expertise and lived experience, the conversation features Puan Noor Azlin Muhammad Sapri, Chief Assistant Director at LPPKN, and renowned singer, host, and celebrity Sissy Imann. Moderated by Ally Iskandar, the discussion offers thought-provoking insights into how personal aspirations, cultural norms, and social pressures intertwine in shaping decisions about love, commitment, and the future. The session aims to spark reflection among Malaysia’s younger generation on redefining marriage within the realities of modern life.
