Donation to Flood Victims in East Coast, Peninsular
Malaysia
2014 had seen the worst wrath of nature in 30 years for the
East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Massive flooding from
continuous monsoon rains affected residents living in the
states of Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan – submerging
their homes, assets and businesses. Many families were
displaced and moved to evacuation centres.
The Group donated RM30,000/- through Persatuan Bulan
Sabit Merah Malaysia (Malaysian Red Crescent Society) to
help alleviate the sufferings of the flood victims. The monies
received by MRCS will be utilised to provide immediate relief
as well as recovery support to the flood victims.
Village of Hope, Vietnam
The Village of Hope in Vietnam was established in 1993 and
has since brought up around 530 orphaned and hearing-
impaired children, who were living in extremely difficult
condition around the Da Nang and Quang Nam Provinces.
Currently, there are 120 children aged between 6 and 18
years living and studying with the village’s 14 families. Village
of Hope’s aim is to provide the children the opportunities for
academic pursuit and character development that lead to
improved self-esteem.
Employees of TCIE Vietnam, a subsidiary of the Group
operating in Da Nang, spent a day at the Village of Hope
organising a ‘gotong-royong’ to help clear the surrounding
areas of the village as well as spending time interacting
with the children. They also distributed gifts to the excited
children as well as food supplies to the families.
As a caring employer and to promote a spirit of unity and
compassion among staff, the Group organised a donation
drive among its employees to provide relief to employees
affected by the flood in their hour of need. The Company
matched the amount donated by the employees.
