Millennials in Malaysia understand the adverse effect consuming alcoholic drinks from their parent. Besides, prolonged campaign of "too much alcoholic drinks are bad for health" are really effective way stopping us from binge drink.



Furthermore, alcoholic drinks are for adults (normally bartender ask your age prior serving). Even though we can pretend we are adult but the heavy tax imposed by the authorities really put us off as one simple and normal alcoholic drinks are priced at more or less RM8.50 in an amount 300ml to 350ml.



Last but not least, the religion strongly against consuming alcoholic drinks. Some of us think alcoholic drinks must be really bad to the extent it goes opposed by religious teaching.



It might be true Millennials are not drinking that much now. In fact, they do not find it is good to drink what the elders have been drinking all this time.  In order to attract younger generation, the company behind alcoholic drinks are introducing the health-concerned alcoholic drinks to the market with as low as just 4.5% alcoholic content.
