y dear members,
we have just completed our major
fund raising event. Kudus to Rtn Olivia Lim for a tough job well done. I
would also like to record my appreciation to the entire committee, namely Alice, Rianne, Siti, Usha, Superjit
and Louis who also put in a lot of
effort to make this project a success.

The Miss America Pageant was established in 1921 and hosted the winners of local newspaper beauty contests in the "Inter-City Beauty" Contest; a turnout of over one hundred
thousand people was achieved and
sixteen-year-old Margaret Gorman of
Washington, D.C. won both the popularity and beauty contests and was
awarded $100. Similar national pageants were also established in Britain, Germany and other countries in
the 1920s.
The first modern beauty pageant was
held during the Eglinton Tournament
of 1859 held by Archibald Montgomerie, 13th Earl of Eglinton, a reenactment of a medieval joust that
was held in Scotland. The pageant

at the time was known as "Miss Universe."The event was discontinued in
the United States in 1932 because of
the Depression (the international
competition was revived briefly in
Belgium).
The other Big Four international
beauty pageants are Miss World,
Miss Universe (begun in 1952), Miss
International (1960) and Miss Earth
(2001). They are the most coveted
beauty titles when it comes to international pageant competitions and
are considered to be as such since
they are the four largest and most
famous female beauty pageants
across the globe. Because of their
prominence which already became
an institution in beauty pageant industry, many fans always anticipate
these beauty pageants each year.
Critics of beauty contests argue that
such contests reinforce the idea that
girls and women should be valued
primarily for their physical appearance, and that this puts tremendous
pressure on women to conform to
conventional beauty standards by
spending time and money on fashion,
cosmetics, hair styling and even cosmetic surgery. They claim that this
pursuit of physical beauty even encourages some women to diet to the
point of harming themselves.

Miss Earth Malaysia
Miss Earth is the third-largest international pageant competition among
women from countries around the
world, after Miss Universe and Miss

give meaning and relevance to this
beauty competition by promoting
worthwhile environmental causes
and getting actively involved in caring
for the preservation of Mother Earth.
This is a true celebration of a woman’s natural beauty, poise and personality. In fact, Miss Earth incorporates a special ‘natural beauty’ round
where a women’s natural beauty is
judged sans make-up or makeover.
This is a tribute to the natural beauty
that is a reflection of the beauty
within. This pageant aims to appreciate what a woman always wants – to
be a natural beauty, unblemished,
immaculate and refreshingly natural.
Miss Malaysia Earth delegates are
selected through a beauty contest
which each state in Malaysia will
send their top three winners from
the state level. All the top three winners will compete at the national level to be crowned as Miss Malaysia

t was a crowded lunch
meeting on Tuesday 19th August
2014. Present were five exchange
students from the Rotary Club of
Ichihara in Japan and two from the
Rotary Club of Soekman in Korea.
Making up for the poor attendance
of last week, 28 Rotarians (66%),
three children and two representatives from BP Healthcare attended,
making a total of 40 persons in
attendance.
President Kris called the meeting to
order sharply at 1.00 pm and made
the usual announcements. PP Seng
Chuan was the finemaster by going
back to basics as he tested our
knowledge of various Rotary personalities. Many failed his test as
some could not even provide the
names of the RI President, last
year’s District AG for the club and
the current AG. As a result he was
able to extract a credible RM 102
for his effort.
Talk on coronary heart disease
As usual, the highlight of the
meeting was the talk by Guest
Speaker Dr Loh Hoong Sheng, Consultant Physician with BP
Healthcare, on the subject Coronary
Heart Disease. Introduced by PP Kia
Heong, Dr Loh was a graduate of the
International Medical College in
2006 who won the Gold Medal and
was placed in the Dean’s List. In
Week We Shared
2010 he was admitted into the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of the UK.
Supported with vivid pictorials, Dr
Loh took us into the cardiovascular
system and introduced us to CAD
(coronary heart diseases), CVD
(cardiovascular diseases), IHD
(ischemic heart diseases), ACS
(acute coronary syndrome) MI
(myocardial infarction). He asserts
that fatty streak, formed by cholesterol, can begin to occur from age
12 years and the challenge is to control its spread to avoid a heart
attack.
Statistically, 141 persons per
100,000 population will be victims
of a heart attack. There are 144 cases of heart attacks every day, of
which only 10% reach the hospital
alive, and of these 90% die within
the hour! Timeliness to receive
medical help is therefore of utmost
importance.
Risk factors include hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, hypertension, sedentary lifestyle, smoking, obesity
and genetics. Except for the last, all
factors can be controlled by a
change in lifestyle. Malaysia is the
sixth ranked for obesity/diabetes
and is in the worst position for the
Southeast Asian region! We have
2.6 million who suffer from diabetes
and one in five Malaysians above 30
years suffer from the disease. More
than 30% are estimated to have hypertension, of which only 35% are
diagnosed and treated. Unfortunately, the incidence of diabetes
and high cholesterol is accelerating
over the years. For example, there
were only 8.39% diabetics in the
1990’s but this figure jumped to
20.8% in 2011; likewise, the figures
for high cholesterol were 20.7% in
2000 and 35.1% in 2011.
The principal contributors to the
acceleration are the excessive consumption of sugar and salt as people do not pay heed to diet. Older
people are more aware of the need
to diet, but even for this category
only 30% actually take action.
What are the signs of an impending
heart attack? Nausea, sweating,
pale pallor, difficulty in breathing,
anxiety and crushing chest pains in
men are typical signs. There may be
no signs for women. Pain can radiate and not necessarily confined to
the chest region, eg. it can spread to
the neck and jaw, the shoulders and
even the stomach.
How can we diagnose for heart
problems? An ECG is one important
route. So is a blood test for raised
cardio biomarkers. Other causes are
gastric reflux, pulmonary embolism,
pneumothorax, pneumonia and
muscle and skeletal injury. Complications include heart failure, shortness of breath, multi-organ failure,
irregular heartbeat and embolic
stroke.
7
The way forward is prevention, viz.
dieting, exercise, losing weight, no
smoking, stress control and control
of diseases. Early screening, including undergoing a stress test, is necessary. Other tests include a CT coronary angiogram and an ultrasound.
Treatments include medication, rehabilitation and CPR using the Compression-Airway-Breathing approach. The message imparted is
that we should keep calm and call
for help!
PP Jack thanked Dr Loh for a most
interesting talk.
Other matters
The fund raising Miss Malaysia Tourism dinner was successfully held on
15th August 2014. Exchange students from the Rotary Club of
Ichihara in Japan and the Rotary
Club of Soekman in Korea are now
our guests, and a steamboat dinner
will be organised for them on 20th
August. All members are invited to
participate.
The Interactors’ Leadership Seminar
was held on 16th August at Catholic
High School, led by many of our Past
Presidents. The ICC chair is now held
by Sri Aman. The Catholic High
School Board has been installed,
with Assunta following this coming
Thursday. On 18th August Interactors of SAS donated RM 15,000 to
Mercy Malaysia. The dialogue with
IC school principals will be held on
27th August at Armada Hotel in PJ.
Week We Shared
Of particular interest is the Group
12 excursion to Lang Tengah in Terengganu on 19-21 September to
promote marine conservation. The
cost for accommodation, food and
other expenses at the resort is RM
800 per pax. Travel will be separate
and it was proposed that if numbers
permit, a coach will be hired. Any
member interested please contact
the Organising Chairman for RCPJ,
PP Kevin directly.
Please note that the usual lunch
meeting on Tuesday 26th August will
not be held in favour of a dinner
meeting on Friday 29th August at the
Dorsett Hotel. This is the Board’s
decision to have an evening meeting
on the last week of each month.
Please also be informed that the scheduled lunch meeting on Tuesday 2nd
September will be CANCELLED, in view
of the Merdeka holidays.
Moving Forward
For the benefit of Rotarians’ commitment to various projects and
activities of RCPJ, I am including a
Moving Forward section in the Peejay Post to keep all informed. Please
note in your diary so that we can
have best attendance and participation from all concerned!

President Gary C.K. Huang’s ambitious
1.3 million membership goal
G
ary C.K. Huang never
imagined he would
become Rotary International's president
when he joined in 1976, but now
that he is in office, he hopes to
increase membership to 1.3 million by the end of his term.
"It's simple. The more members
we have, the more people we
can help. A stronger membership
base will result in stronger communities," says Huang, who on 1
July became Rotary's first Chinese president.
Huang also hopes his presidential theme, Light Up Rotary, will
encourage members to brighten
Rotary's image to the public,
which he believes in return will
improve member recruitment and
retention.
Huang has a track record of improving membership development in Asia, adding 19 clubs
when he was district governor for
Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau.
One of the cornerstones of his
presidency is encouraging clubs
and districts to conduct a Rotary
Day. These one-day events, he
says, can spotlight a particular
cause, and solidify Rotary's image as one of the world's leading
service organizations.
"We need to showcase our good
work to everyone in the community. Rotary Days need to be fun
and all inclusive. Invite your family, friends, and neighbors to participate. My hope is at the end of
the day a few non-members will
want to join Rotary," he says.
"Let's give people the opportunity
to experience what it's like to
make a difference. Rotary Days
can achieve that."
Huang designed a travel schedule that will allow him to visit
more than 30 Rotary Day events
across the globe, including Argentina, Chile, France, India, Italy, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines,
and the U.S., as well as his home
city of Taipei.
Huang says he's honored and
humbled to be Rotary's president. He knows he's part of an
exclusive club.
"We [past Rotary presidents]
have achieved great success in
our businesses and in our communities," says Huang. "But success isn't about power or money.
It's about giving back. Being a
Rotarian has given me the opportunity to help those in need. As
president, I can inspire our members to take advantage of the
same opportunity and bring happiness in people's lives."
Funding gaps
Huang says Rotary members are
never short on ideas and innovative ways to solve problems, but
funding gaps prevent many of
these projects from taking off.
For instance, Rotary members in
Korea, Japan, and China are
strong fundraisers, but struggle
to help each other use the funds
because of distance and language barriers, Huang says.
"I want to show Rotarians why I
am their president," he adds.
"The best way to do that is to see
and inspire their work, participate
in their projects, and help them
raise funds."
"I want to, along with my district
governors, reach out and try to
link different clubs from different
countries together so we can find
the right communities in need,"
he adds. "That's one of the great
things about being an international organization: the ability to
bring different cultures and backgrounds together to find a common cause."

going on inside.
Five hours later, whilst John was on the verge of
death, the security guard of the factory eventually
opened the door and saved him. John then asked
the security guard what he came to do there as it

day but you're one of the few who greets me in
the morning and says goodbye to me every night
when leaving after working hours. Many treat me
as if I am invisible. So today like every other day,
you greeted me in your simple manner "Hello" at
the entrance when resuming for work. But curiously after working hours today, I observed I've
not heard your "Good bye see you tomorrow".
Hence I decided to check around the factory.
I look forward to your greetings every day because
