HELP ORANG ASLI OF KAMPUNG REKOM

Help OA of kampong Rekom Kelantan

Recently, Tok Batin Pak Abo (who is partially blind) of kg Rekom came to Gombak KL and called us requesting for assistance. The logging has stopped and it is more difficult for them to get out and get supplies. Kampung Rekom is the most remote and last village along the route after Pos Simpoh from Gua Musang. It is also less visited by outsiders and poor logging road condition makes it difficult to get there.

A few amateur radio members who are off road enthusiast are planning to go on the 7th Nov evening and return Sunday 9th Nov. Tok Batin Pak Abo gave us a list of items that they require . So far we have managed collect about 70% of the items from generous members. We are collecting donations from those who wish to donate and no matter how small the donations even a tin of milo or maggie mee, etc we will carry your items ( sikit2 jadi bukit). You can give second hand clothes (especially children’s clothes) and toys. We cannot take large items as we are limited in space please check with us before hand. If there are extras supplies that cannot be carried we will donate to the local orphanage.

Our plan is to leave from Anis Putri2 (former Alibaba restaurant) Taman Tun Dr Ismail on Friday evening about 9Pm . If you like to make any donations, please email to Azhar 9w2axe@gmail.com .

Thank you for your support
