KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MRCS) wants the public to stop sending clothes and foodstuff for now as what they really need are cash, medicine and basic survival items such as sleeping bags and cooking utensils.
Other non-medicinal items needed are plastic sheets, tents, blankets, jerry-cans for water, wet suits, pain tablets, antibiotics such as Amoxcillin and Panadol, oral rehydration salt, diarrhoea and wind tablets such as Imodium, masks, gloves, gauze and cotton.
