SHAH ALAM, June 28 — The free health screening programme Selangor Saring will take place in three locations this weekend, including the Jelajah Selangor Penyayang roadshow from 9am to 5pm.

State executive councillor for public health Dr Siti Mariah Mahmud said it will involve three districts, including Kuala Selangor, Hulu Langat dan Kuala Langat.

She said the programme at the Bukit Melawati and Jeram state constituency will be held at Stadium Utama in Kuala Selangor on Saturday, simultaneously with Jelajah Selangor Penyayang.

On Sunday, Selangor Saring will take place at the Batu 11 Basketball Court for the Balakong state constituency, while for the Banting state constituency it will be at Dewan Sri Jugra.

The state government has allocated RM3.4 million to ensure the success of Selangor Saring, which would benefit 39,000 people, particularly those with a family medical history, obesity, or an unhealthy lifestyle.

Physical screening, blood and urine tests, eye, cervical and breast cancer, occult or colorectal faecal blood testing, and prostate tests are all available during the programme until September 4.
