Dr Wee: Each family in need will be supplied with aid during hard times


PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong has assured that each family in need will be supplied with aid, especially necessities and food during such hard times.

The MCA president and Ayer Hitam MP said he visited a warehouse to store goods to be given to people in need.

It was an initiative by his constituency’s service centre at the Dewan Gemilang Jalan Templer in Yong Peng, Johor.

“I inspected the stocks of rice, cooking oil, flour, milk, biscuits, canned food and other necessities to be channelled to flood victims and those who have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

“I found that the supplies are sufficient even though a part of it is also distributed to flood victims beyond the Ayer Hitam parliamentary constituency area like Segamat and Pagoh,” he said in a Facebook post on Saturday (Jan 8).

Dr Wee said part of the stock has been packaged into boxes while 2,500 food packages have been given to those in need.

“I will ensure every family in need will always receive a supply of goods, especially necessities and food during these tough times,” he said.
