Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan have been badly hit by floods as heavy rains continue unabated in that part of the country.

With deep concern for the welfare of those devastated by the floods, the Shangri-La Hotel, Kuala Lumpur has galvanised into action and put together a collection of items to send to the victims.

This includes two lorry loads of bed sheets, towels and duvet covers, bathrobes, soaps, toothbrushes, 200 pairs of school shoes, school bags, books, toys, used clothing, shampoo and hair conditioner.

Manfred Weber, general manager of the Shangri-La Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, handed these items over to K. Balasupramaniam, founder and chairman of the Malaysian Volunteer Fire and Rescue Association (MVFRA) on 26 December. Members of the hotel staff helped in loading boxes of the items on to the MVFRA truck.

The truck will make its way to Pahang and Terengganu to deliver these items directly to flood victims in shelters where they have been evacuated, to provide them with some relief and comfort.
