High anemia cases affect stunting figures in Yogyakarta: Official

Yogyakarta (ANTARA) – The high number of anemia cases among teenage girls in Yogyakarta may affect the number of stunting cases among children in the province, Yogyakarta Health Office’s Public Health Head Endang Pamungkasiwi noted here on Sunday.Based on the Health Ministry’s Basic Health Research (Riskesdas), the prevalence of anemia among teenage girls in Yogyakarta is experiencing an upward trend from 37.1 percent in 2013 to 48.9 percent in 2018. Within that percentage, the demographics that suffer from anemia the most are those in the age groups of 1524 years and 2534 years. ccording to Pamungkasiwi, theYogyakarta Health Office pays special attention to anemia cases in order to prevent stunting in children. Action to prevent this includes examining the hemoglobin (Hb) level of teenage girls as future mothers. “In addition, we also give blood supplement tablets to teenagers,” she said. The birth of children at risk of stunting involves a long cycle, and it is triggered when future mothers are still teenagers or not yet married. Thus, the Yogyakarta Health Office handles stunting using a life cycle approach. Because stunting involves a long cycle, the office’s intervention began with teenagers, she explained. ccording to the Yogyakarta Health Office, the prevalence of stunting cases in the province in 2019 reached 21.04 percent, then 17.3 percent in 2021, before decreasing to 16.4 percent in 2022. Pamungkasiwi believes that various health and education approaches will be able to reduce the stunting figure in Yogyakarta to 14 percent by 2024, in accordance with the target within Presidential Regulation No. 72 of 2021. To achieve this target, all villages in Yogyakarta have a stunting reduction acceleration team (TPPS) whose job involves carrying out health and non-health interventions. Health interventions include the provision of additional food, tablets, or multivitamins, as well as other health services. Meanwhile, non-health interventions include healthy lifestyle education efforts and stunting data provision. “All villages have it (TPPS), but their mobilization speed certainly differs in each village,” she said. baca-jugaRelated news: Local gov’t should ensure ultrasound device availability: MinisterRelated news: Yogyakarta’s villages have stunting eradication team: Health OfficeRelated news: Ministry stresses importance of updating extreme poverty data

Hyundai Motor chief to join Korean version of Buffett lunch project

Hyundai Motor Group Executive Chair Euisun Chung will hold a lunch meeting with young applicants in a project modeled after “Warren Buffett lunch” to connect better with younger generations, a South Korean business lobby said Sunday.

The Federation of Korean Industries (FKI) planned the “God-saeng One meal” project as part of its efforts to restore its status as the country’s leading business lobby group and strengthen communication with the public, an FKI spokesman said over the phone.

God-saeng means a life that is lived very faithfully in Korean. It focuses on oneself and establishes goal-oriented routines for his or her development.

Hyundai Motor Group Executive Chair Euisun Chung

In the first communication project, the FKI invited Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Chung, car-sharing company SoCar Chief Executive Park Jae-uk and entertainer-cum-entrepreneur Noh Hong-chul to a lunch meeting with the MZ generation.

The FKI plans to select 30 MZ people for the God-saeng One meal project.

Generation MZ refers collectively to millennials, who were born in the early 1980s to early 1990s, and Generation Z, born in the mid-1990s to early 2000s.

The three business leaders will meet with the 30 selected people under the theme of “God-saeng for dreams and unyielding spirit,” the FKI said in a statement.

Chairman Chung leads the South Korean automotive group’s efforts to morph into a future mobility solutions provider, with focus on electrification and autonomous driving.

SoCar CEO Park has played a leading role in the growth of the SoCar business as the country’s No. 1 car-sharing services provider.

Noh is operating restaurants and bakery and coffee outlets with a variety of creative ideas, such as a circus-concept bakery-cafe store, which are popular with the MZ generation.

The selected applicants will have to pay for their lunch with the three businessmen by fulfilling their plans to contribute their talents to the community within three months, the statement said.

Warren Buffett, 92, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., raised more than $53 million for San Francisco charity Glide, in the past 21 auctions, which began in 2000.

No auctions were held in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Last year, an unidentified wealthy person bid more than $19 million to dine with Buffett in the 21st and last auction.

In 2017, the FKI came under fire as chief executives of member conglomerates, such as Samsung Group, Lotte Group and SK Group, were accused of being involved in the corruption scandal surrounding impeached President Park Geun-hye.

Activist groups called for the disbandment of the then 56-year-old lobby group despite its drastic reform plans.

Some 180 member companies, including the country’s four biggest conglomerates — Samsung, SK, Hyundai Motor Group, LG Group — have withdrawn from the formerly 600-member group since March 2017.
