Fast Food Replies...

Fast food has spoken in opposition of Malaysian government's plan to ban fast food advertising. McDonald's Malaysia's new managing director explained that it really is no use, citing an example in Sweden where the country did just that 13 years ago. A survey indicated there was no reduction in obesity compared with other European nations.

McD, Nutritional Society of Malaysia, Malaysian Dieticians' Society, media and advertisers' associations will meet with Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek tomorrow.
