15Malaysia: Healthy Paranoia

Written by J Shamsul, Saturday, September 19, 2009 | 0

Have you notice the graphics on the cigarette packages nowadays? Do you think that the gruesome graphics of smoking side effects manage to stop smokers from smoking? Notice any difference between the number of smokers now and before? No? Neither do I.

Is scare tactics the best way to make people live a more healthy live? Do you thing scaring people from smoking is the best way to stop smokers instead of educating smokers of the benefits they would have if they don’t smoke?

15Malaysia Healthy Paranoia discusses those questions but in a funny and entertaining way. It stars our own health minister Dato’ Seri Liow Tiong Lai. It’s directed by Khairil Bahar and also features Baki Zainal the kid the scolded Khairy Jamaluddin in ‘Meter‘, yet another 15Malaysia film.

Why stop at just cigarettes? There are more harmful things. Eating too much candy will cause teeth decay. Too much nasi lemak will make you fat.

Ministry of health are responsible to educate the people of things harmful to your health and the benefits of living healthy not scaring the people and causing paranoia.

Watch the making of Healthy Paranoia, interesting to see that the health minister is willing to play along an act in this 15Malaysia project.
