Kuala Lumpur, 24 August 2023 - In conjunction with their 75th anniversary, Tokio Marine Life Malaysia, TMLM, renewed its partnership with Make-A-Wish Malaysia to resume its support for children with critical illnesses and organised two movie experiences for these children at Sunway Pyramid, Bandar Sunway, and AEON Mall Kinta City, Ipoh. Giving them a much-needed break from their medical treatments, TMLM picked up where they left off continuing their long-standing relationship with Make-A-Wish Malaysia after a three year hiatus.

According to data from the Global Burden of Disease Study, about one million people under the age of 20 pass away each year from non-communicable illnesses (NCDs). Type 1 diabetes, cancer, congenital and rheumatic heart disease, sickle cell disease, and asthma are a few examples of these. However, cure rates for children are substantially greater than for most adult cancers, and up to 60% of all children can currently be cured completely. Recognising the need for proactive measures to protect children's well-being, TMLM strongly believes that there should be significance in prioritising children's health and protecting them from illnesses and diseases, given their vulnerability.
