In a statement today, MRA President Dr Mohd Daud Sulaiman said the agency will continue to do its part by complementing the humanitarian effort that is being carried out to needy communities nationwide. “For Sarawak, although Sarawak MRA was just established, a group of volunteers there are actively involved in humanitarian service by consulting with migrant groups in Kuching and other districts that could not move further inland. A total of 200 packs of basic food items were distributed to the affected groups including the cities of Kuching, Samarahan, Sri Aman and Sibu.
MRA has also donated 143,000 facemasks, 3,000 sets of personal protective equipment and 20 ventilators to general hospitals in Sabah, through close cooperation with the state government, he added.
