Panel to focus on nutrition problems in children, says Khairy

A Special Committee to Combat Multiple Nutrition Problems in Children has been urged to focus on the problem of stunted children’s growth in Malaysia. Calling it a worrying issue, Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin on Monday (June 27) said the government aims to reduce the rate of stunted growth in children to 8% in 2030, compared to the present rate of over 20%.
