OPINION
that most of the breeding grounds for these pesky fl yers are around
garbage dumps and unkempt bushes.
Th ere is only so much the authorities can do through fumigating.
I mean, we don’t like it when they come around our neighbourhood
and start blasting that thick fog along the streets, right? Th en let’s
rally up the troops and start cleaning things up! Look for any source
of stagnant water and dump it all.
If now isn’t the time to take matters into our own hands, then
when will it be?
P.S. Forgive this father of a two-year-old son for being so violent
against Aedes mosquitoes.

oST of us do not understand the impor-
tance of blood circulation in our body.
Most people are scared at the sight of
blood and some even faint seeing the red liquid
oozing out of a person’s body due to injuries sus-
tained. Poor blood circulation is the main cause of
all illnesses from minor headaches to more serious
diseases like stroke and heart attacks .
Contaminated blood is due to pollution, stress,
lack of exercise, smoking and even lack of sleep and
the consumption of food that is high in oils such as
nasi kandar, seafood and so on. Th ese foods cause
high cholesterol which narrows the arteries, reducing
the supply of essential oxygen, water and nutrition
to the heart and the brain, causing heart attacks or
strokes.
Removing the scum
In order to remove the plaque, blood-thinning drugs
are used but this does not eliminate the cause but
instead only treats the symptoms. For sustainable
long-term cure it is necessary to ‘massage’ the blood
by ‘stirring’ it so it will clean the blood vessels of
plaque and let more blood to fl ow.
I was introduced by my friend to a therapy in USJ
that has an electrotherapeutic device that delivers 70
vibrations per second via electrons that enters your
body. Th e improved blood will deliver oxygen, water
and nutrition to all your organs including the heart,
brain, kidney and liver, key functions for a healthy
body and mind.
All you do is to sit on the chair that has a mat
connected to the electrotherapy machine and let the
therapy do its job. You will not feel anything at all and
instead the health advisors will explain the whole
process in an entertaining manner to keep everyone
happy. I am quite amazed that they are able to keep
up their presentation from 10.00 am to 8.00 pm with
each session lasting 50 minutes. Th ree health advisors
take turns to be present. Th eir own Cosmo Dr. therapy
is proof enough of its effi cacy, I guess.
Good vibrations
Everyone is tested by a gadget that will vibrate as
it touches your body. In fact, if you touch a bottle
of mineral water you can actually see it vibrating.
Participants testify that after a few days they have
felt improvements in reducing blood pressure,
improved sleep, pains in the body, eliminating
migraine attacks, sinus and joint pains. A 70-year-old
lady demonstrated she can now squat and stand
eff ortlessly, something she could not do for years.
I brought my brother, who was suff ering from
gout, and for the past three weeks has been going to
hospital for treatment as he suff ered joint swellings
and was bedridden. Since he could then walk with a
cane he attended the session and at night he was able
to sleep soundly. Th e next day he felt much better and
even went cycling!
I was pleasantly shocked at the result and he has
vowed to attend the session everyday till he really
improves.
All the rage
Th e product has been a rage in Japan for the last 30
years, 15 years in Hong Kong and now has spread to
Singapore and Malaysia. Th e sessions are free! Th is
strategy is eff ective in allowing people the experience
and to invite their family and friends so that those
who can really aff ord the device, which can cost more
than rM20,000, can purchase it.
As for me my energy level has improved and as it
is free I kept going back for the last two weeks. Th e
showroom in USJ 1 is called Cosmo Dr and has been
open since May and will be on till end September. It
will be extended provided they meet the attendance
target. Th is is a fantastic demonstration of experi-
ential marketing if I ever saw one. — The Health
