We need more such facilities if we want to lose our fattest people in SEA crown.

Just like how you don't need to build swimming pools because people who want to swim or learn to swim will find a place to swim even without a swimming pool? Klang River, anyone?

The idea is to encourage people to exercise. If you notice, when there's a park, you'll see people exercising. Don't you feel sad/worried seeing people or your kids jog or run at roadside? Good habits start from young. Where else is better to get our kids started than a neighbourhood park?

The same goes for pedestrian-friendly walkways. Have you ever considered walking to nearby destinations, then "nah, I don't want to twist my leg or get hit by cars?" Or you think people who want to walk will walk regardless of the walkway conditions?

If you visit Sinkie one day, visit one of their neighbourhood parks or stadiums. There's a reason they build so many when land is so expensive.
