chinese women (ahem. me!) lives longer

“malaysian chinese women are generally more health conscious”, so said dr mustaffa omar, head of the human development programme in universiti kebangsaan malaysia.

actually it is no suprise that women lives longer than men, as it is a known fact. however, now they are pointing out ethnic and saying that it is the chinese women that lives longer. this is because acording to the article, generally, chinese are more health conscious. i suppose this is true in a way, seeing that, you get to see more chinese in gymns or taking up healthy sports like swimming than the other races.

food also plays an important part in health, and it is said that nasi lemak, which the malays loves, is one of the most unhealthy food. huh? really? but i love nasi lemak too. maybe i wouldn’t live to an old age after all.

seriously, i wouldn’t want to live past 80… but it depends on the one up there… up to him how long he wants to keep me on earth.
