OF LATE, there have been lots of videos and postings played up on the social media, portraying visits of non-governmental organisation members or individuals to dilapidated houses of the needy and poor, built under the bridges or spots deemed dangerous or unfit for one’s living.
Those poor families were subsequently attended to like being given food aid or relocated to a better living area. Most of the times, arrangements were made with Pusat Zakat Baitumal or the Welfare Department where these poor and needy families started to receive the monthly cash aid, but not before netizens jumping into the bandwagon, throwing all sorts of unkind, cruel remarks on the social media, of course, against the authorities and the government.
