SEREMBAN: A painting donated by MCA Youth chief Datuk Chong Sin Woon and auctioned at a dinner has raised RM168,888 for a special fund to help traders affected by the fire at the Seremban wet market last month.
Chong said he decided to donate the painting, which was given to him by a local artist, to ensure that the 327 traders affected by the fire could restart their businesses soon.
