CERVICAL CANCER AWARENESS TALK

On the 2^nd of November, 2011 (Wednesday) from 4pm to 5pm, Leo Club of INTI International University had held a Cervical Cancer Awareness Talk at Seminar Room II, INTI International University. The main objective of the talk was to raise the awareness of better cervical care among the female staff members and also the female students in INTI International University.

            Our main speaker, Ms. Amy of Winalite Global Sdn. Bhd.(creator of Love Moon Sanitary Pads), was invited to give a talk regarding the importance of better cervical care and the risks of not doing so. Most of the participants were female and altogether there were 35 participants. Some of them were male.

            Ms. Amy had given the talk in a slightly humorous yet alarming tone. The talk was very informative as some of the cases discussed and highlighted in the talk are becoming more and more common among the female communities. Many of the participants were unaware of the risks of neglecting proper cervical care until they were informed about it during the talk. Therefore, many of them have gained a lot through the talk.

            After the talk has ended, some of the participants stayed to consult Ms. Amy, as she is a professional in Biogenetics. They consulted her questions and problems regarding personal hygiene for ladies. Of course, they were highly satisfied and pleased with her factual and informative advice.

            Conclusively, the event had succeeded in achieving its main objective. I hope that more and more people will pay attention to the risks of cervical cancer. It should not be a problem to be ashamed of when brought up for discussion as cervical cancer is the No.2 killer in the country for females. Regardless being a guy or girl, we all should work together in protecting ourselves or our female family members and friends as well.

Yours in LEO Spirit,
