Kudos - It’s world champion SMJK Keat Hwa from Kedah

It’s certainly no easy task and a truly Malaysia Boleh! role model by Kedah’s SMJK Keat Hwa.

Keat Hwa was crowned overall world marching band champion after winning several categories contested at the 2016 World Championship of Marching Show Band (WCMSB) competition.

“It’s such a shame that Keat Hwa’s world-winning feat received so little attention and recognition by the local media and the federal government, especially the Education Ministry,” Gerakan Deputy Speaker Syed Abdul Razak Alsagoff said.

He said the Education Ministry should have acknowledged and publicised Keat Hwa’s world recognition to not only stress the importance of co-curriculum education but also to motive other schools to strive to be the best or world champion.

“In fact, Keat Hwa was only the second Malaysian school band to win the world competition. SM Sultanah Asma was the first Malaysian school to win the award in 2011.

“How many Malaysians are aware of or know this? What a shame!”

SM Sultanah Asma band created history by emerging as the first Malaysian band to win the prestigious World Championship Marching Show in 2011
Syed Razak, who is Gerakan’s nominee to contest N.37 Bukit Lanjan in the coming 14th General Election (GE14), said the Education Ministry must start thinking out of the box on how to motivate students, teachers and schools to strive for excellence in any education curriculum.

“One of the best ways is to reward national, international or world achievers. Highlight their achievements to motivate others to strive for the same.

“Go on nationwide roadshows throughout the year to promote and motivate excellence,” he added.

He said global competitiveness was rising fast in every field, be it education or professional skills.

“Malaysia needs as many creative or innovative champions to ensure the country’s socio-economic progress. Without talent and the right minds, the future is bleak,” he added.

Both terms mean that a person's weight is greater than what's considered healthy for his or her height. How to know whether you are obese? Examination 1: Physical & weight If you've always been a normal weight without having to try too hard, you may consider yourself lucky. But the mirror and the scale only tell part of the story: You can look great in a bikini or have a body-mass index (BMI) in the normal range, but if you don't take care of yourself, you could be just as unhealthy as an obese person. This phenomenon sometimes is known as skinny-fat, or "normal-weight obesity". Despite weight alone can not certainly tell whether you are obese or not, it is the very first vivid sign of obesity symptoms … for more, go to  http://ladyshopnow.com/insight-on-obesity....
