Dr KS Beh, Chief Executive Officer of VitaHealth (Malaysia and Singapore) shared, \u201cAs a global nutrition provider for more than 70 years, our Group firmly believes in our long-standing value that the true quality of life stems from a harmonious balance between physical health, and mental wellness. In recent years, the prevalence of mental health issues has become a global concern. Offline 16 was inspired by these insights and we are so pleased with the overwhelming turnout and support from the public, media members as well as our corporate partners. The success of this event is also in celebration of VitaHealth\u2019s 77th Anniversary hitting a double milestone for our Company. Our ambassador \u2013 Pearly Tan, Malaysia\u2019s pride and joy, was also there to engage with the crowd sharing her tips on overcoming challenges and achieving her goals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Grand Ballroom at Tropicana Golf &amp; Country Resort offered a comfortable event space for the participants and sponsors. This event brought a myriad of benefits to all who attended \u2013 offering sensory, personalised, and impactful experiences for all to unplug, unwind and recharge. We are also so happy to share that Offline 16 has set a new record in the Malaysia Book of Records as the most accumulated offline hours in a day,\u201d Dr Beh added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ong Chou Wen, Chief Executive Officer of Tropicana divulged, \u201cTropicana started its sustainable journey centred around 8 unique development DNAs and 3 ESG pillars, namely People, Planet and Partnerships, where creating a safe, sustainable and thriving community is at the heart of everything we do. With this in mind, we respect the well-being of our people as we believe mental health should be valued, promoted, and protected. We are very pleased to jointly host this successful ESG event with VitaHealth providing an avenue for our employees as well as the community to disconnect to reconnect. Aligned with our mantra of Redefining the Art of Living, we believe it is a universal human right to have a healthy mind. We are thankful that the event went on smoothly and that all participants benefitted from it, walking away feeling renewed, refreshed and rejuvenated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watsons Malaysia\u2019s General Manager of Marketing and Customer Growth, Danny Hoh stated, \u201cWe are proud to be one of the participating partners of this truly unique experience that is the Offline 16 event leading to the award in the Malaysia Book of Records.
