GET.SET.GLOW! with guardian Malaysia This September 2024

September 2024 has been chosen by guardian Malaysia as the Get.Set.Glow! month that celebrates and cultivates all there is about wellbeing via:

• Store offerings and pharmacy services
• eStore promotions, contest and rebate
• #MYWellbeingMatters YouTube series and podcast featuring health experts and
• A week-long wellbeing festival.

Get.Set.Glow! aims to help Malaysians to see why wellbeing matters and adopt the culture of preventative healthcare and nurturing of wellbeing. Anna Ng, Marketing Director of guardian Malaysia, said: “Wellbeing is an ‘important’ matter for everyone. This includes being able to access the ideal curation of wellbeing offerings coupled with guidance by experts.”

In this campaign, guardian has chosen to work with the following experts, all of whom are medical specialists in their respective fields, to speak about key wellbeing topics on Youtube that is accessible by Malaysians nationwide:

• Dr Gayethri Chokalingam, Consultant Internal Medicine Physician
• Dr Kenny Chen, Consultant Cardiothoracic Surgeon
• Dr Wong Yee Ming, Consultant Paediatrician
• Dr Arunan Periasamy, Consultant Paediatrician

Beyond these health experts’ Youtube talk series, Malaysians can also speak with their neighbourhood’s community pharmacist. The pharmacists at guardian’s outlets nationwide have the right expertise to address our customers’ questions on blood sugar, blood pressure as well as weight management and guide them to stay healthy and be well.

“We, at guardian, are aware of the growing importance of wellbeing matters and therefore chose the hashtag #MYWellbeingMatters,” added Anna.
Growing importance of wellbeing, amongst Malaysians

Based on the 2023 Asia-Pacific Health Priority Survey, 79% of Malaysians are more health conscious, post-pandemic. Within it, 60% seek improvement in overall health. This is shown by the desire for healthier eating habits (52%), fitness (50%), mental wellness (50%) and improved immunity (49%).

“The survey results very clearly showed that Malaysians of all walks of life see the need for holistic wellbeing. We, at guardian Malaysia, hear you and we believe this month-long Get.Set.Glow! campaign is the right boost as you embark on your journey towards cultivating wellbeing,” Anna said.

What inspires Get.Set.Glow!?

This campaign has been inspired and guided by guardian Malaysia’s vision of ‘Nurturing MY Wellbeing’. Elaborating on what this means, Anna said:

“As a company, we believe in the holistic health and wellbeing approach that covers the needs of the mind, body and spirit so that Malaysians across all ages can be the best version of themselves to everyone around them.”
