Donation Drive For Sichuan & Burma Disasters Fund

On the 18/5/2008 (sunday) we were at Chemor, perak to carry out a donation drive for Sichuan & Burma Disasters Fund. Also present were Jalong State Assemblywomen Leong Mee Meng, Cheong Chee Khing and Jalong DAP members. We carry out the donation at Chemor Market from 8.00 am until 10.30 am. We managed to raise RM 14,630.00 on that day. I must congratulate YB Leong Mee Meng for her effort in raising money for the Sichuan & Burma Disasters Funds. Through her and DAP members'effort, they they managed to raise RM120,000.00 in total from her Jalong constituency alone. Kudos to her !

During the donation drive, it is heart warming to see Malaysian of all ages, creed and religion contributed towards the disasters fund. Clearly, many are touched by the human suffering. We can see peoples from of all walks of life came united and joined hands to alleviate the pains and suffering of the Chinese and Burmese nationals through this humanitarian aids.

Well, my next donation drive will be held at Pasir Pinji market this Saturday 24/5/2008 from 7.30 am until 9.30 am. Ipoh Timur Member of Parliament, YB Lim Kit Siang will attend the launching ceremony and i hope we will be able to raise some money towards the disasters fund. I hope the public will come forward to donate generously and lend a helping hand to those in need. Together, we can contribute to lessen their sufferings and pains.

Let us show the world that Malaysian is a caring and loving society as always.
