DR. THONG SAID EVERY INDIVIDUAL OR ORGANISATION COULD UNDERTAKE HEALTH EDUCATION AND CONSIDER THEMSELVES AS HEALTH EDUCATORS.

+PRACTICALLY EVERYONE OR ORGANISATION IN THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE CONCERNED WITH THE PROBLEM COULD RECEIVE AND DISSEMINATE HEALTH EDUCATION MATERIAL AND KNOWLEDGE SO AS TO GIVE THE SUBJECT THE WIDEST VENTILATION POSSIBLE, HE SAID.

HEALTH EDUCATION, HE SAID, SHOULD NOT BE REGARDED AS THE PRIVATE PRESERVE OF CHLY THE +PROFESSIONALS+ AND THE AUTHORITIES+, ALTHOUGH PEOPLE WORKING DIRECTLY IN THE FIELD AND RELATED AGENCIES HAD SPECIAL RESPONSIBILITIES IN PROVIDING THE

LEADERSHIP AND IN THE PREPARATION OF HEALTH EDUCATION MATERIAL.
