Wow wtf reduce height some more over the years…

Machem going the North Korea route

* anyway many pipur in Bharat is vegetarian.

Could it be insufficient animal protein is the cause of malnutrition??

Might be true in kampungs

But if you stay in majority T20 cities like Putrajaya and Cyberjaya…

The school kids are tall….

We are quite okay ler developmental wise. Just 3-4 cm shorter than South Koreans and Japanese men average height.

Average Height of Malaysian Men
• 1960s: Approximately 165 cm 
• 2020: Approximately 169.2 cm 

This indicates a growth of about 4.2 cm over six decades, reflecting the nation’s development in health and living standards.

🔍 Factors Influencing Height Trends

The increase in average height can be attributed to:
• Nutrition: Better access to a balanced diet during childhood and adolescence.
• Healthcare: Improvements in medical services and disease prevention. 
• Socioeconomic Development: Enhanced living conditions and reduced poverty levels.

However, the rate of increase in Malaysia is modest compared to some neighboring countries, suggesting potential areas for further improvement in public health and nutrition programs.

If you’re interested in more detailed data or comparisons with other countries, feel free to ask!

Probably the difference in demographic sample size? 164-165cm average i would agree though if we include the unker and old pipur as well.
