WATSONS MALAYSIA CELEBRATES 10TH JOM SIHAT GET ACTIVE CARNIVAL WITH RECORD-BREAKING ZUMBA AND SING-ALONG FUN RUN
Driving Health, Happiness, and Community Spirit with more than 7,000 participants.
Watsons Malaysia, in collaboration with Majlis Sukan Wilayah Persekutuan (MSWP), celebrated the milestone 10th edition of its Jom Sihat Get Active Carnival 2025 at The Exchange TRX. The carnival brought together more than 7,000 participants for a morning filled with fitness, fun, and wellness activities, including the 2.5 km and 6 km Sing-along Fun Run and breaking The Malaysia Book of Records’ Largest Live DJ Spinning Zumba in Malaysia.
The event was officiated and graced by YB Datuk Seri Dr. Zaliha binti Mustafa, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Federal Territories), who commended Watsons and Majlis Sukan Wilayah Persekutuan (MSWP) for their continuous efforts in promoting healthy lifestyles and fostering community spirit through engaging wellness initiatives.
“At Watsons, we believe that health and wellness should be fun, inclusive, and accessible to everyone. The Jom Sihat Get Active Carnival has always been about bringing communities together to stay active and celebrate life. This 10th edition is especially meaningful as we continue to innovate with exciting activities like the Sing-Along Fun Run and set new records with our Zumba. We’re proud to see thousands of Malaysians joining us today, proving that when we are active together, we are stronger together,” said Caryn Loh, Managing Director of Watsons Malaysia and Chief Operating Officer, Health & Beauty Asia, A.S. Watson.
The day kicked off with the Sing-Along Fun Run, where participants ran to the beat of familiar Malaysian and top hits. To get everyone moving, Majlis Sukan Wilayah Persekutuan (MSWP) led the warm-up session before the energy peaked with a record-breaking Zumba session, powered by a live DJ set.
Adding to the excitement, Watsons’ participating brand partners engaged with participants on games, product sampling, wellness services, and interactive activities. On top of that, KPJ Healthcare will be joining the Watsons’ team of pharmacists on-site to provide free health checks such as glucose and cholesterol checks, as well as full body BMI analysis to further strengthen Watsons’ commitment to promoting overall health and wellness.
The carnival also welcomed 100 participants from the disabled community, represented by Jabatan Belia dan Sukan Negara (JBSN), who actively took part in the Fun Run. This reflects Watsons’ belief that health and wellness should be inclusive and accessible to everyone.
Watsons also celebrated the Watsons Club Member Anniversary by continuing its tradition of rewarding members with the chance to win a brand-new home at Centrum Iris, Cameron Highlands. The campaign, launching on 1 September 2025 in conjunction with Watsons Malaysia’s 15th Anniversary, invites Watsons Club members who spend a minimum of RM50 in-store or online with a VISA card to participate.
