AIA Malaysia chief executive officer Ben Ng, AIA group chief risk officer Jayne Plunkett, Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek and AIA group chief marketing officer Stuart Spencer at the AIA Healthiest Schools regional awards event 2023 held at the Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur.
AIA group chief marketing officer Stuart Spencer says the organisation is taking the lead in cultivating and shaping the behaviours and mindset of future generations – enabling them to live “healthier, longer, better lives”. “We are tackling the vast proliferation of lifestyle diseases including heart attacks, stroke, diabetes and hypertension that are triggered through lack of exercise, poor diet, stress, consuming alcohol, smoking, mental anxiety, etc.
The programme aims to promote healthy eating, active lifestyles, mental wellbeing, health and sustainability among students aged five to 16, starting in the classroom. The first edition of the programme was held in four of AIA’s 18 markets – Australia, Hong Kong, Thailand and Vietnam – with the ambition to expand to more markets in the coming years.
Lending her support to the event, Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek says that enhancing health and education outcomes requires collective effort and collaboration.
