Day 3: Eat Safe, Stay Healthy

Today, we started with a brief introduction with Dr. Ishak, and followed by a talk on nutrition with the nutritionist, Azizah Bt. Din.

We are glad to know various activities being done to treat as well as to prevent nutritional problem in Sik.

For instance, RMT (Rancangan Makanan Tambahan) for the school children, Food Basket for the underweight children, weight management programme and Healthy Kitchen for adults (was really interesting to know that they teach and demonstrate the participants how to cook healthy food besides educating them on the importance of weight control.), Nutrition Month on April annually, Breast Feeding Month and so forth.

She was very informative yet friendly. After the formal talk, we had an informal chit chat with her about Sik. WE were more concerned to know the eating places in Sik. We were given a few suggestions and end up in knowing that there is a vineyard in Sik!!

Our unbelievable mind caused us to drive heading to Beris (where the vineyard situated) which was about 10kms from DHO Sik during our lunch break.

It was really a mind blowing to visit such a beautiful place (in Sik).

After having lunch, we got into the meeting room for our next session. to be continued...
