MotoGP: Martin raih kemenangan sulung di GP Styria

SPIELBERG: Jorge Martin memanfaatkan kedudukannya di petak pertama sebelum meraih kemenangan dalam Grand Prix Styria yang penuh dramatik semalam sekaligus melakar kemenangan sulungnya dalam saingan MotoGP.

Martin, bersaing dalam musim pertama MotoGP, meraih petak pertama dengan catatan masa 1 minit 22.994 saat -- rekod masa terpantas di Red Bull Ring.

Bagaimanapun, dia memerlukan peluang kedua untuk mengubah sesi kelayakan yang menakjubkan itu berikutan bendera merah yang dikibar pada permulaan saingan ekoran pelanggaran yang melibatkan Dani Pedrosa dan Lorenzo Savadori.

Francesco Bagnaia berjaya mendahului Martin, tetapi selepas perlumbaan disambung, kedudukan asal telah digunakan, dan selepas memperoleh semula kawalan daripada Jack Miller, penunggang jentera Pramac itu memastikan dia kekal di tempat pertama mengatasi Joan Mir dan Fabio Quartararo.

Niaga SPOTLIGHT: Costing The Silent Threat of Obesity

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in Malaysia are a growing burden on the health system, with a number of associated health issues and economic costs.

The annual cost of healthcare for NCDs is estimated to be over RM 9.65 billion. Meanwhile, the cost of disability and loss of healthy life years is estimated to be around RM 100.79 billion. Absenteeism due to NCDs is estimated to cost the Malaysian economy RM 2.6 billion annually.

From the common NCDs, obesity is one of THE most significant health threats, with nearly 20% of the Malaysian population currently classified as obese.

Additionally, more than half of all adults (54%) are overweight or obese. According to the World Obesity Atlas, this figure could rise to 41% in Malaysia by 2035, if preventive action is not taken.

Niaga Spotlight focuses on immediate strategies to address this growing silent threat of Obesity, which also burdens the national healthcare system as well as national productivity levels with significant impacts and costs.
