PETALING JAYA: From crowdfunding medical supplies to a virtual music festival, Malaysians are banding together to perform heartwarming acts of kindness for those in need during the Covid-19 crisis.

Many of these collective efforts have raised up to tens of thousands of ringgit for those in need over the span of just a few days, as compiled by R.AGE’s #StandTogether kindness team, which has been collecting stories of kindness and positivity.
