10. UN Secretary-General:
NCDs in developing countries are
hidden, misunderstood and underrecorded
A rapidly rising epidemic in developed and
developing countries…
… with serious socio-economic
impacts, particularly in developing countries.
Workable solutions exist to prevent most
premature deaths from NCDs and mitigate the
negative impact on development.
The way forward: These solutions need to be
mainstreamed into socio-economic development
programmes and poverty alleviation strategies.

Assembly (May 2012):
Decided to adopt a global target of
a 25% reduction in premature
mortality from NCD by 2025.

(May 2013):
Adoption of the Global Action plan for
the Prevention and Control of NCDs

targets.

16. Multi-Sectoral Approach:
What & Why?
• Working together across sectors to improve health and
influence its determinant
• Forging new collaborations and partnerships are critical in
making progress in addressing the NCD epidemic.
• Partnership occurs at different levels:
• Individuals, families and communities.
• Government, communities and NGOs.
• Government, development partners (within countries), civil
society and, as appropriate, the private sector.
16
17. ‘Whole-of-Government’ and
‘Whole- of-Society’ approach
• ‘Whole-of-Government’ denotes
public service agencies working
across portfolio boundaries to
achieve a shared goal and an
integrated government response
to particular issues.
• Responsibility for health and its
social determinants rests with
the whole society, and health is
produced in new ways between
society and government.

and to persons at high risk (> 30%) of a cardiovascular event
within 10 years
Providing aspirin to people having an acute heart attack

“Healthy” Settings such as Cities, Towns, Schools, Workplaces etc.
21. MSA-Entry Points
National National multi-ministerial forum
• Effective only with commitment at the highest
level, need a good driver, Health in All Policies
Inter
ministerial
Subnational City/District/Village level
• More feasible, leverage local government, collective
voice of community, government closer to the
community, local ordinances
Local
Government
Risk factor Tobacco/Alcohol/Physical Activity
• Facilitators-activism, pressure
groups, champions, international agreements
(FCTC), global reporting, more palpable
interventions, common good /common enemy
Cross sector
working groups 21
22. Current inter-sectoral mechanisms:
MOH participation
• Cabinet Committee for a Health-Promoting Environment.
• Established under NSP-NCD.
• Chaired by the Deputy Prime Minister, members consist of 10
Ministers
• National Council on Food Safety and Nutrition
• Established under the National Plan of Action for Nutrition.
• MOH is also a permanent member of various interministerial committees under several ministries e.g.
•
•
•
•
Ministry of Education;
Ministry of Youth and Sports;
Ministry of Housing & Local Governments;
Ministry of Women, Family and Social Affair.

• Health promotion and education will increase awareness and
knowledge

Policies & regulations
26. Strategy 7: Policy & Regulatory
Interventions, Progress thus far…
• Guideline on marketing of foods and non-alcoholic beverages
to children (Self-regulatory, August 2013).
• Strengthening implementation of the Framework Convention
for Tobacco Control (FCTC).
• Guideline on food and beverages sold in school canteens
(revised guideline, January 2012).
• Banning of sale of food & beverages by mobile vendors
outside of school perimeters (2012)
• Health-promoting workplaces in the public sector
• Healthy menus during meetings
• Healthy vending machines
• Healthy cafeterias
There is still much that needs to be done….
26
27. Lessons learned from the past and current
attempts to work with other sectors
• Go for the path of least resistance.
• Perhaps less impact, but at least establish the link and develop
trust.
• Compromise, find the “middle path”
• You cannot force the other sectors to go 100% your way.
• Be creative – think “out-of-the-box”
• Use other existing mechanisms not previously used to move the
NCD prevention agenda forward.
• Be sensitive to current global/national trends.
• Use any opportunity to move the NCD prevention agenda
forward.

29. Strategy 5, Research
• What’s new?
• Currently developing a research framework for developing and
evaluating behaviour change interventions in combating
obesity among Malaysians.
• JOM MAMA – a pre-pregnancy intervention for the future
prevention of obesity, diabetes and CVD.
• SEACO Demographic Surveillance Site.
• HOPE-4: Hypertension Outcomes Prevention and Evaluation 4;
cluster randomised trial of a model hypertension and CVD risk
assessment, detection, treatment and control programme.
29
30. Challenges for Malaysia
• The main challenge in policy and regulatory interventions
remain that they are mostly under the responsibilities of
ministries and departments other than Ministry of
Health
• Ministry of Health needs to take leadership role.
• Need to find a win-win solution – “mutuality of interest”.
• Economic and “political” consideration remains paramount and
needs to be acknowledged.
• The health sector needs to play a strong advocacy role.
30
31. Summary
• Preventing and controlling NCD is an urgent priority for
all countries.
• Most of the drivers of NCDs and their risk factors lie
outside the control of the health sector.
• Specific for NCDs:
• MSA is required to create enabling environments, so that healthy
choices are the easy choices.
• MSA is also required to break the cycle of poverty and NCDs.
• The prevention and control of NCDs and their risk factors have a
positive impact not only on health, but also on productivity and
economic and social development.
31
32. Health promotion champions
• Public health personnel are most
suited to become health promotion
champions
• Health knowledge
• Clinical skills
• Communication skills
• Right attitude
• Confidence among people
• Friendly
