UNICEF says ..

AS part of World Breastfeeding Week (Aug 1-7), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) reminds women and families of the vital importance of complementary feeding and appropriate breastfeeding practices.
UNICEF applauds Malaysia's Health Ministry for its breastfeeding programmes which encourage mothers to breastfeed their babies exclusively for the first six months, and then continue to breastfeed while providing timely, nutritionally adequate, safe and responsively-fed complementary foods for two years or longer, said Gaye Phillips, UNICEF Representative to Malaysia.
