WHITEFLAG – SOS FOR FOOD

 

MY SAY

A meaningful campaign during the pandemic period. Food is the most essential in the list of necessity in our life. One can do without new clothing, but one cannot do without food even within a few hours. That is the reason we hear the word “cari makan” means we work to put food on our table. We rarely use the word we work to become “rich” but more often humbly we work to stay alive.

I stay in Ipoh Garden South, the commercial area, I have yet to see any white flag in any house.

If yes, its time to help the white flag resident.

 


 

The 99speedmart has come up with a campaign to donate to the white flag resident from July 1 to 14, with a target of 1,000 packages to be delivered within 24 hours. Only for housing areas near 99speedmart outlets.

If you see anyone in the neighbourhood near 99speedmart that requires support with a white flag.

Send the following information to Whatsapp at 010-5000099 or message directly on 99 speedmart Facebook account via private message (PM).

MBI ASSISTANCE ON PANDEMIC TIMES

 

IPOH: The Ipoh City Council (MBI) has played an active role in assisting the Kinta District Disaster Committee and the Perak state government in many ways during the covid-19 pandemic period.

Datuk Bandar Datuk Rumaizi Baharin @ Md Daud said the council had assisted in setting up a vaccination centre located at stadium without charging rental fees but instead providing them with cleaning services, here.

“The cleaning services include washing the interior of centre, rubbish collection and disposal, providing reception staff, car park attendance and security for vaccine placement.

“MBI has also prepare a proper place for Covid-19 swab test at the Tennis Court and placement of Covid-19 patient held at the Badminton Court,” he said during the June full board meeting.

 


 

On another issue, Rumaizi said that the council had provided free rental for four months to trader at Ipoh Market and Food Court which involved 1,000 traders amounting to RM80,000 allocation.

“The council continued to waive the one-month rental, involving 824 traders at the Ipoh Market which comes to RM20,000, during the continuing of the movement control order”.

“In another matter, an urban farming project was initiated at the Tun Razak Library where the staff had used part of the land for planting of vegetables using solar energy hydroponic technology.

“In return, the staff benefit from free vegetables planted at the library, and this help to reduce financial burden of having to buy it from market” he said.
