KULAL LUPU (25 December): As Malaysians celebrate Christmas with their families, friends, and loved ones, they are encouraged to remember the less fortunate, including those who are dealing with challenges, grief, and loneliness.
In her Christmas and New Year greeting, Women, Family, and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri asked Malaysians to show kindness to one another.
She stated that throughout the past week, Malaysians have lamented the loss of many lives—including young children—in the Batang Kali disaster.
"The tragedy certainly shocked and grieved the entire country. She continued, "My sympathies go out to the families of the deceased."
According to Nancy, numerous states in the nation experienced flooding last week, particularly in Kelantan and Terengganu, where tens of thousands of people were affected.
