I strongly feel that this is a great cause and should be shared to everyone here once again
Please lend me your 5 minutes, it will do good returns to all the women in this world with just a little effort from you
Power Over Cervical Cancer (POCC)
(What is this?)
A disease awareness campaign against cervical cancer that is launched by National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM). This advocates women to take the first step towards protecting themselves against cervical cancer via vaccination and regular pap smears.
POCC aims to continuously educate women on cervical cancer and the risk factors of the disease.
A Quick View about Cervical Cancer
- 3rd most common cancer among Malaysian women and 3 women was diagnosed with cervical cancer everyday
- Awareness of cervical cancer in Malaysia is very low
- Cervical cancer is preventable! (This is a very good news!)
This is the Key Messaging in 2010/2011 for this cause :
- Best Friends Forever (BFF) - if we're going to be BFFs, you're going to have to help with the forever part

For the guys, with the knowledge and awareness that you have, you can protect your girlfriends!
