Masagos Zulkifli on support for child and maternal health and well-being
The inter-agency Child and Maternal Health & Well-being Taskforce has drawn up various initiatives to serve families better by wrapping both health and social services around them. Of the 48 initiatives, 28 have been rolled out and the remainder will be progressively implemented over the next two years. These initiatives will be evaluated from 2025 onwards, based on their effectiveness in achieving their intended outcomes and other dimensions, such as participation rates. Second Minister for Health Masagos Zulkifli gave this update in reply to Parliamentary questions on Tuesday (Jul 2). He said many of the initiatives require close coordination among multiple partners and stakeholders. He stressed the need to raise awareness on the importance of anchoring healthy behaviours as early in life as possible, ensuring that more families can benefit and enabling the next generation to grow well and realise their potential.
