INSPIRED by a viral Internet trend, Persatuan Penyakit Motor Neuron Malaysia (MND Malaysia) and ATV News held a public awareness event with a catchy title.

The “Ok i love U” Ice Bucket Challenge took place at Padang Timur, Petaling Jaya to raise awareness on motor neurone disease (MND), also referred to as ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis).
