Kong disclosed that as of to date, the total amount collected since the inception of this charity program in 2002, in aid of the needy and special groups of people, has exceeded RM100, 000.00.

He noted that although the amount donated to the two organizations was not big, it would at least help them to continue with their annual activities and programs in aid of the underprivileged and needy in the state.

“On behalf of the company and the Non-Governmental Organizations, I take this opportunity to sincerely thank all the donors for their generous contribution. We hope this will make a difference for these charitable organizations and the underprivileged,” he said.
