Social media personality and entrepreneur Khairul Aming is using his online platform to help flood victims in Kelantan.
In a sharing, he said along with his team and volunteers, they have begun preparing food to be distributed at the flood relief centres in Pasir Mas.
Meanwhile, he said his staff will buy and prepare the basic necessities to be sent by a truck to the centres tomorrow.
“There are thousands of victims with not enough basic necessities right now,” he said.
Khairul Aming also called for those in Kota Bharu who want to donate bread, mineral water, sanitary napkins, food packs, blankets or any other basic necessities to drop them off at the Sudin Nasi Berlauk restaurant in Sri Cemerlang.
He did mention that the cut off time for donations today is at 9pm.
Baru landed Kelantan. Hari ni kita mulakan bantuan banjir ke pusat pemindahan. Petang ni kita settlekan makanan di Pasir Mas dahulu. My staff akan beli and prepare barang-barang keperluan asas dan esok kita akan hantar dengan lori ke PPS. Ada ribuan mangsa yang tak cukup… pic.twitter.com/uKk7rB6l8S
