It's beautiful when a nation comes together

Yayasan Al-Islah, a foundation that helps the poor and financially-strained residents in Section 7, Shah Alam, has stepped forward to do just that — providing aid to the poor and needy.

Yayasan Al-Islah is one of the exemplary organisations that contribute to lightening the burden of others although it is limited to helping up to 2,000-odd residents. When there’s insufficient Personal Protective Equipment for frontliners to an extent that nurses and hospital assistants had to make “makeshift” protection gear from garbage bags, emphatic Malaysians came forward in droves to contribute in cash and kind.

On social media, it is heartening to see popular photographer Saiful Nang with a group of orphans using their ingenuity to manufacture 17,000 plastic face shields per week, while a couple cleverly uses 3-D printers to create similar equipment.I saw a YouTube video which shows Muslim preacher Ustaz Ebit Lew contributing food, face masks and portable toilets to hospitals.

Besides this, she has distributed aid to B40 households in rural and urban areas, even as far as Terengganu. Now, there’s a petition to oust her as a Universiti Teknologi Mara board member despite all that she has done.

This is what we are. This is our DNA. This is what makes us SPECIAL. This is why we are unique. UNITY in DIVERSITY.

Just my opinion, people should not defy MCO, but cases like this I wonder if they don’t need to be handcuffed in this manner, same goes to other harmless ones. The aggressive ones yes, they deserved it. This is the how it is going to be from now on with this government so get used to it. Any excuse to undermine the minority. Call a spade a spade. This is religious persecution.
