Presented and approved by the Cabinet on 17 December 2010.
Provides the framework for strengthening NCD prevention & control
program in Malaysia.
Adopts the “whole-of-government” and “whole-of-society approach”.
Diabetes & obesity are used as the entry points.

7. Cost effective NCD interventions…
• What works, what can we afford, and what should we adopt?
• The challenge? Identify interventions that:
• are effective;
• can lead to measurable declines in NCD death rates quickly (e.g.
over 10 years);
• are affordable; and
• can easily be implemented and sustained.

13. JOM MAMA
Opportunity
Focus on pre-pregnancy for prevention
1.
New DOHaD science indicates that pre-pregnancy
offers opportunity for prevention of diabetes and
other NCDs
2.
Increasing levels of obesity and hypertension in
women of reproductive age
3.
Pre-pregnancy overweight approximately doubles
the risk for hypertensive disorders, preeclampsia
and gestational diabetes. Overweight and obesity
increase the risk of stillbirths, obstetric intervention,
postpartum hemorrhage, and birth defects2.
4.
Pre-pregnancy health status affects both the shortterm and long-term health
5.
Women enter pregnancy with modifiable risk factors

17. Vision
To develop a world class research and training site providing high quality
infrastructure for conducting community based “whole of life research” that
informs internationally, nationally, and locally relevant, priority questions
related to population health and wellbeing.
Mission
SEACO will achieve its vision through the collection and sharing of high
quality data and methods. The protection of, and service to the
communities involved with SEACO is paramount.

SEACO: A research platform
• A community-based sentinel surveillance system that
captures longitudinally, a fully enumerated population within
circumscribed geographical location.
• The data collection process explicitly captures information on
demography, morbidity and mortality from the individual,
within the context of the household, and the household
within the context of the community, as well as the physical,
social, geographical relationships between these.

26. National Diabetes Registry
• Web-based application.
• Went live on 1 January 2011.
• Supports the implementation of the
annual “Diabetes Clinical Audit” and the
“Diabetes Quality Assurance Programme”
amongst Type 2 Diabetes patients in MOH
Health Clinics.
• First report, “NDR Report, Volume 1, 20092012” was published in August 2013,
available at the MOH website, under
“publications”.

27. Summary
• We know what needs to be done for the prevention and
control of NCD.
• What we do not know is how best to implement in real
life situations and within the socio-cultural context of
Malaysia.
• Implementation-type research, including behavioural (qualitative
research) can provide evidence in answering this question.
• Multisectoral approach, not only in implementation but in
research as well.
