The government sets a package to increase the interest of people going to a gym regularly to stay healthy and fit. This would result in a decrease in obesity which is a major problem in malta. Example : government pays 30/40 euro for a person applying for a year at the gym or extending a contract. This will make a difference for people already going to the gym as well. Economy needs to be for the people!
What about the people who go out walking along our promenades and don't go to the gym. They are also working hard to keep healthy.
Yes, but this proposal would be there for the people that dont do any exercise and would prefer to go to the gym than walk outside. Such incentive would increase the total amount of people performing exercise hence reducing obesity and increasing fitness and health.
