“Of course, there are also some free services for the M40, such as body fat or weight check,” he said during the ShallWeeTalk Facebook live session today.

In terms of food, he said the popular delicacies from previous years such as sausages, oyster omelette (‘o-jian’), roasted full lamb and pork, crocodile meat will continue to be served.

Other than Chinese food, he added, there will also be Korean, Japanese, Malay, Thai, and Philippine cuisines.

Meanwhile, Kuching South City Council (MBKS) mayor Dato Wee Hong Seng urged the general public to also take the opportunity to enjoy the medical services provided other than tasting food.
