Provide proof, researchers told

Star: TANGKAK: Researchers on health-related subjects have been urged to provide scientific proof together with their findings before announcing their results.
Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Azizah Mohd Dun said researchers should not announce any findings without scientific proof.
“Those involved in research projects related to health should not give their conclusions hastily,” she said after launching the Tangkak women district councillors' recycling campaign yesterday.
Commenting on a research by a university team on the dangers of re-using plastic bottles on grounds that the material could dissolve, Azizah said there was no scientific proof to support the conclusion.
