Rotary Help for Baling

11/7/2022

President Thiaggu, and Rotarians Moorthy and Dr Parthiban went into action yesterday to obtain and deliver some items of urgent need for Baling flood victims in in the community of Tanjung Merbau, at the bank of Sungai Kupang. Lotus's sponsored 15 stoves and 30 rice cookers. RM 1,514 was approved by the District Disaster Relief Committee for this project. This was for kettles. The object was to quickly get the community back on their feet in self-supply of drinking water and rapidly restore their kitchen function. Rotaractors from AIMST University were an immense help. Our First Lady Shareta was also in action.
