QUOTE(teslaman @ Feb 9 2023, 04:40 AM) You guys helping anyone past 24 hours? Or yourself in the poor waiting for subsidy category? Always contribute what I can at church in our area here. Most not in the form of money or cash but buying daily necessities for families who needed them. Things like baby diapers and milk formula are still crucial nowadays many can't afford them. Got cases of poor parents fed their baby with condensed milk mixed with warm water. Yes that's what I saw. During MCO time things were way harder for some folks. I don't see the need for you to get upset just because users here pointing out about prioritizing the local Malaysian first instead of Turkey. Showing anger here certainly not going to help your cause.

QUOTE(icemanfx @ Feb 18 2023, 07:25 PM) Syrian is more deserving than Turkish. Malaysia has contributed 20 million humanitarian aid to Turkey and Syria. Not sure why still need to ask contribution from individuals here. QUOTE Malaysia has contributed RM20 million in humanitarian aid to help the earthquake victims in Turkey and Syria, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said today.
He said the contribution included US$1 million each from the Malaysian government and the sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar, with the remaining donations from various parties, including local companies.
"For the search and rescue mission, we have sent two Malaysian Special Search and Rescue Teams (SMART) with another team, including the Malaysian Armed Forces (ATM), to leave tonight," he said during the Minister's Question Time in the Dewan Rakyat.
- Advertisement - He was responding to Iskandar Dzulkarnain Abdul Khalid (PN-Kuala Kangsar) who wanted to know the form of aid provided by the government to help the victims of the earthquake in Turkey and Syria.
On the cost of sending the SMART teams, Anwar said their flight expenses were fully borne by the Turkish airline, with the government spending only about RM4 million for the purpose. https://www.malaysianow.com/news/2023/02/14...nd-syria-so-far
