“Beyond the Scale” focuses on obesity as a chronic disease — urging empathy, early intervention, and evidence-based care.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 June 2025 – Imagine a chronic disease affecting more than 600,000 people^1-3 in Singapore — yet often misunderstood, overlooked, or surrounded by stigma. This is the reality of obesity today. For many, outdated perceptions and delays in care have created barriers to support and treatment. Today, a new initiative is calling for a shift — to change how we think, talk about, and respond to obesity, through a lens of science, empathy, and early intervention.

Novo Nordisk’s ‘Beyond the Scale’ initiative

Breaking the Myths: A Public Health Reframe
“Just eat less.” “Try harder.” “It’s a lifestyle choice.” These are more than just phrases — they reflect a deeper misunderstanding of obesity. Today, a bold new initiative, seeks to challenge those misconceptions and open the door to a more compassionate, evidence-based conversation. “Beyond the Scale” launches across Singapore with a clear and urgent call to focus on obesity as not a failure of willpower, but as a complex, chronic disease. The initiative invites the public to go beyond — beyond stigma, beyond myths, beyond labels — and recognise obesity for what science confirms it to be: a multifactorial health condition that deserves understanding, early intervention, and clinical care.

Led by global healthcare company Novo Nordisk in collaboration with local healthcare professionals and patient advocates, “Beyond the Scale” is a disease awareness initiative aimed at driving a shift in how individuals, communities, and healthcare providers approach obesity management.

“We believe it’s time to shift from blame to understanding,” said General Manager, Mr Vincent Siow of Novo Nordisk Singapore. “Obesity affects 1 out of 9 people in Singapore⁴, yet it’s still too often seen as a matter of willpower. The reality is that obesity is a complex, chronic disease driven by biology, environment, and unequal access to care.^1,5 It’s time we treat it with the seriousness it deserves — and we are proud to lead that conversation and drive meaningful change through the “Beyond the Scale” initiative.

Why This Matters Now
The 2021–2022 National Population Health Survey reveals the highest obesity rate (15%) among adults aged 40 to 49, while 43.3% of residents aged 18 to 74 had abdominal obesity, which increases with age and peaks between 50 to 74 years.⁶ This is compounded by the fact that perceptions persist about obesity being a personal failing, discouraging individuals from seeking help, delaying diagnosis, and compounding the health burden on families and the healthcare system.

Obesity significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease (CKD)⁷, all of which already place a growing strain on Singapore’s healthcare infrastructure. The economic impact is substantial: in 2019, metabolic-risk related diseases, including obesity, diabetes, hypertension, CKD, and cardiovascular conditions, cost Singapore S$2.20 billion.⁸ Of this, S$642 million were healthcare expenditures⁸, and excess weight alone accounted for an estimated S$261 million in annual medical and absenteeism costs.⁹Without decisive public health action, these obesity-related comorbidities are poised to escalate into a major societal and economic burden.

“This is not just a personal issue — it’s a public health priority,” said Dr Ben Ng, Arden Diabetes & Endocrine Clinic. “We know obesity changes how the body regulates appetite, energy storage, and metabolism. It’s a disease, not a choice. Science supports this — and our response should reflect it.”

The Science Behind the Message
Obesity is not simply about calories in and out. Research confirms it involves neuroendocrine (hormonal), genetic, and psychosocial factors, making it both preventable and treatable¹⁰ .

Studies show that in Singapore, weight stigma is often driven by the belief that obesity is a personal failing, lack of willpower, or lifestyle choice leading to delayed treatment, reduced care-seeking, and poorer health outcomes, particularly in managing chronic conditions such as cardiovascular and kidney disease.¹¹

Beyond Labels, Toward Lasting Change
“Beyond the Scale” is more than a slogan — it is a call to treat obesity as the complex, chronic disease that it is. To move away from blame, appearance-based judgments, and oversimplified narratives, toward empathy, science, and sustained health. It is an urgent appeal to rethink, retrain, and rehumanise the way we support individuals living with obesity.

“The earlier we intervene, the better the outcomes,” said Dr. Ng. “Obesity is not a character flaw. It’s a disease. And it’s time we responded with the same respect, science, and care we give every other chronic condition.”

“Beyond the Scale” aims to:

Raise awareness of obesity as a chronic, multifactorial disease.
Reduce stigma and myths that hinder early care.
Encourage timely, evidence-based conversations with healthcare professionals.
Promote empathy and science within the medical community.
Support patients with tools to take charge of their health.

Singaporeans can participate by:

Visiting [www.truthaboutweight.sg] for factual resources, use a BMI measurement tool, and locate a nearest weight management healthcare professional.
Starting honest conversations with GPs, nurses, and pharmacists.
Sharing content to help dismantle myths and support loved ones on their health journeys.

Patient survey finds that those engaged in shared decision-making were 11 times more likely to report higher satisfaction with their treatments, with 90% of lung cancer patients in Japan wanting to play an active role in their treatment decisions[1]

J&J deepens its commitment to patient empowerment in Asia Pacific by launching J&J withMe, a new patient portal offering tailored patient resources, and co-driving market-specific initiatives with patient advocacy groups

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 December 2025 – Johnson & Johnson announced the next phase of The 3rd Opinion campaign across Asia Pacific, focused on championing shared decision-making between lung cancer patients and healthcare professionals through events and stakeholder engagements at ESMO Asia 2025 in Singapore.

At a Patient Reception on 6^th December 2025, 20 leaders from 17 patient advocacy groups from across Asia Pacific, Europe and the United States shared their support for the need to strengthen shared decision-making. On December 7, 2025, the ESMO Asia 2025 Symposium, ‘Advancing EGFRm NSCLC Treatment Through Shared Decision-Making’ highlighted the role of healthcare professionals not only in making sense of the data but also in helping patients and their families navigate complex decision-making.

“High prevalence in Asia of certain NSCLC mutations makes the choice of first-line therapy absolutely critical. Treatment decisions must balance clinical objectives with patient values — weighing disease biology, survival prospects, durable disease control and the tradeoffs of side effects. That’s why shared decision-making is essential: clinicians should present all appropriate treatment options, so the final choice is collaborative and aligned with each patient’s goals,” said Professor Zhu Zhengfei, Director of the Radiation Oncology Department, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center.

“When lung cancer patients are empowered to speak up and understand their options, they are more likely to continue the treatment and their dignity is preserved. Initiatives like ‘The 3rd Opinion’ are vital for fostering truly patient-centered partnerships between people living with cancer and their healthcare teams,” noted Ms. Liu Yiting, Marketing & Branding Director, China MeetHealth Mi-Jian Patient Community.

“The shared commitment validates what many people living with lung cancer have long expressed: shared decision making is essential. From our experience supporting patients, meaningful conversations with clinicians help acknowledge patients’ experiences, address their concerns, and preserving their hopes,” added Mr. Jung-Il Cho, Chairman of Korea Lung Cancer Patients Association.

Our commitment comes off the back of a recent patient survey revealing that 90% of Japanese lung cancer patients want to play an active role in their treatment decisions. The survey also found that shared decision-making, where physicians and patients jointly compare treatment options and decide together, is the strongest driver of treatment satisfaction.¹

To bridge the gap between patients’ desire to engage in shared decision making and their lack of practical support, J&J has launched “J&J withMe”, an online hub that equips lung cancer patients and caregivers with tailored toolkits and conversation guides to prepare for consultations and make informed, personalized treatment decisions.

Anthony Elgamal, Vice President of Oncology, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine Asia Pacific said, “The 3rd Opinion truly puts patients at the center of care. As part of our deep commitment to address patients’ unmet needs, we will continue partnering with patient advocacy groups and healthcare professionals to help patients to find their voice and the moment when medical advice meets what truly matters to patients.”

In recognition of diverse cultural and clinical norms across Asia Pacific, J&J has also rolled out tailored market activations in collaboration with local patient advocacy groups:

Provision of patient resources such as the “Lung Cancer Book of Answers” in China, ‘Value of Time’ video for patients in Japan, and educational assets in India and Australia/New Zealand;
Digital and social media engagement featuring patients and creators discussing the importance of shared decision-making across Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam;
Event engagement via the establishment of a patient advisory board in India;
Corporate Social Responsibility program with a lung cancer patient group in Korea, bringing employees and patients together to better understand the disease burden of patients and strengthen emotional support for the patient community.

###

About the 3^rd Opinion

“The 3rd Opinion”, the patient’s own opinion, is a new term that sparks a social movement in the lung cancer treatment journey – designed to elevate the patient voice and empower individuals to take an active role in shaping their treatment plan. By prioritizing shared decision-making between patients and healthcare professionals, this collaborative approach ensures that treatment choices are aligned to each patient’s goals, preferences and circumstances. This results in more informed decisions, greater patient satisfaction, and the best possible outcomes.

About Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Worldwide, lung cancer is one of the most common cancers, with NSCLC making up 80 to 85 percent of all lung cancer cases.[1]^, [2] The main subtypes of NSCLC are adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma.[3] Among the most common driver mutations in NSCLC are alterations in EGFR, which is a receptor tyrosine kinase controlling cell growth and division.[4] EGFR mutations are present in 10 to 15 percent of Western patients with NSCLC with adenocarcinoma histology and occur in 40 to 50 percent of Asian patients.[5]^{, [6],[7],[8],[9],[10]}EGFR ex19del or EGFR L858R mutations are the most common EGFR mutations.[11] The five-year survival rate for all people with advanced NSCLC and EGFR mutations treated with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is less than 20 percent.[12]^,[13] EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations are the third most prevalent activating EGFR mutation.[14] Patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations have a real-world five-year overall survival (OS) of eight percent in the frontline setting, which is worse than patients with EGFR ex19del or L858R mutations, who have a real-world five-year OS of 19 percent.[15]By comparison, other common cancers, such as breast and prostate cancer have a 5-year real world OS of 90% and 97% respectively[16].

Skychakra Global Capital Strategy Upgrade: Advancing Cross-Border Listings and RWA Ecosystem

Published

11/12/2025

Media Outreach

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 December 2025 – Skychakra Group recently held a grand inauguration ceremony at the Hong Kong International Center, announcing the official acceleration of its globalization strategy. With a mission to “enhance individual energy, empower enterprise growth, and promote asset capitalization,” Skychakra simultaneously launched three major international initiatives: a cross-border listing incubation system, an RWA (Real World Assets) technology ecosystem, and the international upgrade of mind-body energy science, building a new economic ecosystem that spans technology, industry, and capital.

As a global hub for innovation and capital, Hong Kong serves as a significant gateway for the activation of Skychakra’s global strategy. This inauguration not only symbolizes the completion of the facility but also marks the comprehensive rollout of Skychakra’s international layout.

Official Launch of Cross-Border Listing Incubation Center

During the inauguration, Skychakra announced the establishment of a cross-border listing incubation center, led by a professional team qualified with SEC, PCAOB, and FINRA credentials, boasting over a hundred projects in cross-border listings. The service scope includes U.S. stocks, Hong Kong stocks, and SPACs. Unlike traditional investment banks and financial advisors, Skychakra offers a “full-link” service for enterprise capitalization, encompassing red-chip structure setup, financial and audit compliance, SEC and Hong Kong Stock Exchange filing guidance, dual-path IPO/SPAC design, market value management, enterprise internationalization guidance, and digital upgrades.

Originally planning to sign contracts for four companies at the conference, Skychakra exceeded expectations by signing 12, demonstrating its strong appeal and industry influence in cross-border listings and capital operations.

RWA Technology Ecosystem: Making Enterprise Assets Visible to the Financial System

Real World Assets (RWA) are becoming the core of global financial transformation. From BlackRock’s launch of tokenized funds to Hong Kong and Singapore incorporating RWA into financial infrastructure, RWAs are transitioning from concept to large-scale implementation. Skychakra emphasizes that small and medium-sized enterprises face common challenges such as lack of recognition for their assets within the financial system, difficulties in cross-border financing, and a lack of transparency in asset value.

The Skychakra RWA ecosystem will provide enterprises with: tokenizable asset identification, asset structuring and entitlement, on-chain mapping and minting, cross-border compliance design, global issuance and liquidity channels, and on-chain risk control and transparent tracking. The core value of RWA lies in reducing friction for enterprises in connecting to global capital, enhancing asset liquidity and valuation potential.

A Holistic Growth Model: “From People to Enterprises, From Enterprises to Capital”

Skychakra’s differentiated advantage stems from its foundational logic of “starting with people.” The Skychakra energy courses utilize scientific equipment to measure energy fields, emotional frequencies, and meridian states, assisting individuals in enhancing stability, insight, and decision-making abilities.

Based on this foundation, Skychakra constructs three major systems:

1. Enterprise Growth System: Enhancing organizational capabilities, introducing international business, and providing capital operation guidance.

2. Capitalization System: Building global financing capabilities through listings and RWA structures.

3. Asset Digitalization System: Making enterprise value quantifiable, verifiable, and tradable.

These three systems dynamically interact in a spiral structure, forming Skychakra’s unique full-link growth ecosystem.

Conclusion: Global Layout for Greater International Influence

The inauguration of Skychakra’s Hong Kong International Center signifies the official implementation of the group’s globalization strategy. Looking forward, the focus will be on Hong Kong as the core, with Asia as the main axis, while establishing deep collaborations with the North American and Middle Eastern markets. Through this global layout, Skychakra is creating a new organizational model that transcends regions, industries, and capital, enabling enterprises to achieve value flow in the global market and allowing more Asian companies to gain a stronger voice on the international stage.
