Desa Hartamas FC emerged victorious in the second edition of the Bigger Than King Kong Football Fundraiser tournament
SCORES of well-wishers and volunteers were the key to this year’s “Bigger Than King Kong” charity football fundraising event that managed to raise more than RM65,000 for National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM).
The event was organised by a circle of friends to raise funds for causes that were near and dear to their late friend Ramanan Durairaj, who lost his courageous battle with cancer in 2018.

The sale of food, drink and merchandise was brisk and added to the final amount of over RM65,000 raised for National Cancer Society of Malaysia.
The children’s games, including a three-a-side and penalty shootout, were a big hit.

The early morning downpour did not do much to dampen the spirit of the occasion.
