“This partnership fits perfectly as part of our continuous efforts in championing the fight against high cholesterol as well as high blood pressure and high Body Mass Index through Allianz 3H Cover. Together, we hope to motivate you to make simple, yet important lifestyle changes toward better health and a fulfilling life,” Amy Loke, Chief Market Management Officer of Allianz Malaysia Berhad adds.



The event was also attended by celebrity radio deejay, Sham. DJ Sham, a heart attack survivor at 34 years old, is the ambassador of NESTLE OMEGA PLUS and of its 30 Day Challenge.
