The crowd witnessed the symbolic launching by PDG Woon with both OC releasing a bunch of blue and white balloons followed by a parade within the vicinity of the 3K sports complex.  When we returned from the walk, we noticed a crowd at the diabetes counter waiting for their turn to get their sugar level tested and advise from the in-house Doctor.  The event also saw the support from YB Hannah Yeoh, member of the Selangor State Assembly for Subang Jaya and Councillor Mr Kent Chia.
