SEPANG– Malaysia Airports has pledged RM1.4 million to provide continuous assistance to communities affected by the recent floods. Thus far, the relief efforts have centred on areas surrounding three airports within its network Sultan Abdul Halim Airport in Alor Setar, Sultan Ismail Petra Airport in Kota Bharu, and Sultan Mahmud Airport in Kuala Terengganu.

As part of this initiative, Malaysia Airports has supplied 1,000 modular tents to each of these airports and to the National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA). These tents will be deployed at flood relief centres to provide temporary shelter for displaced individuals. In addition to providing monetary contributions, Malaysia Airports has worked with GLC/GLIC Demi Rakyat & Negara (GDRN) and other related agencies in distributing essential supplies to affected communities, including hygiene kits and non-perishable food items. Moving forward, the relief package will also include bedding sets, as well as cleaning equipment to further support immediate recovery efforts.

Managing Director of Malaysia Airports, Dato’ Mohd Izani Ghani, emphasised the organisation’s commitment to aiding flood-stricken communities, stating, “The recent floods have caused significant challenges for many families, and Malaysia Airports is fully committed to standing by those in need. We are working closely with NADMA, GDRN and other agencies to ensure that aid is delivered swiftly and effectively. Our priority is to foster resilience within these communities during these trying times.”

These measures reflect Malaysia Airports’ unwavering commitment to standing by its staff and local communities during challenging times. The organisation continues to work closely with NADMA and other agencies to ensure timely and effective aid delivery.
