THE Theravada Buddhist Council of Malaysia (TBCM) responded to urgent calls for medical supplies to cope with the high number of critical Covid-19 patients.

Through a fundraising initiative called “A Cry from Within, Compassion in Action”, the council had set up an emergency fund that received the generous support of its member organisations as well as donors and sponsors.
