18,000 TEEN GIRLS IN MALAYSIA GET PREGNANT EVERY YEAR
PUTRAJAYA, Oct 29, 2015:An average of 18,000 teen girls in Malaysia get pregnant each year and seek medical attention at government health clinics, according to Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr S. Subramaniam.
He said of the total, 25% or about 4,500 cases involved out-of-wedlock pregnancy.“On average, there are 1,500 cases of teen girls getting pregnant each month or 50 cases a day in the country.”
He spoke to reporters after the launch of the national-level “Generasiku Sayang” programme by the Permaisuri of Johor Raja Zarith Sofiah Sultan Idris Shah here today.
When asked about cases involving girls getting pregnant due to rape, the minister said the number was relatively small.He said teenage pregnancy or early childbearing would not only affect the mother’s health, but was also feared to have greater risks on the baby, including premature death.
This issue, if not addressed, will increase the risks of teen pregnancy, which may also lead to other problems, such as abandoned babies,” the minister said.On the “Generasiku Sayang” programme, Dr Subramaniam said it was aimed at increasing public awareness on the importance of the efforts to prevent teen pregnancy.
Under the programme, the ministry had set up care centres to provide protection to teen girls or women who got pregnant out of wedlock, as well as their babies.

BODIES OF EGYPT CRASH VICTIMS ARRIVE IN RUSSIA

Investigators from several countries have joined an Egypt-led probe to determine what brought down Russian airline Kogalymavia's flight 9268 on Saturday, killing all 224 people on board, en route from Sharm el-Sheikh to Saint Petersburg.
They have recovered the "black box" flight recorders of the Airbus, and the head of an Irish mission that will join the Egypt-led probe into the disaster said the results from the recorders should be ready in a few days.

CYCLONE HEADS FOR YEMEN AFTER INJURING 200 ISLANDERS
ADEN: Cyclone Chapala was approaching war-torn Yemen on Monday after wreaking havoc on Socotra island and injuring hundreds of people there, as fears of its impact on Oman eased, officials said.
Strong winds hit southeast Yemen and high waves flooded the seafronts of Al-Qaeda-held Mukalla and Shehr in Hadramawt province, as well as the Belhaf gas terminal in Shabwa province, officials and residents said.
"The cyclone is approaching Mukalla and we fear a disaster," one official at the provincial capital said, requesting anonymity."Families have evacuated coastal areas and residents are organising themselves and helping each other to deal with the cyclone," he added.
The city has been mostly controlled by militants of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula since April.
On Socotra, "more than 200 people were injured and dozens of houses and hamlets were either heavily damaged by water or washed away by waves", said Salem Zaher, mayor of the island's main district Hadibo.

TURKEY's AK PARTY WINS BACK MAJORITY IN SNAP ELECTION
Istanbul, Turkey - The Justice and Development Party (AK party) is set to lead Turkey alone once again after a five-month break, easily regaining its parliamentary majority in what Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu called a victory for democracy.
With nearly all of the votes counted, the ruling party was leading Sunday's general elections with 49.4 percent of the vote.
The AK party was followed by the centre-left Republican People's Party (CHP) with 25.4 of the votes, far-right Nationalist Action Party (MHP) with 11.9 percent and the pro-Kurdish left-wing Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) with 10.7 percent.
With these results, AK party is predicted to claim 316 seats in the 550-seat parliament, easily enough to win a majority government on its own.
It was chased by the CHP with 134 seats, HDP with 59 seats and MHP with 41 seats. Parties need to secure 276 seats to govern the country alone.
