While Twitter's #ThereIsHelp initiative is nothing new – prompts for suicide prevention, vaccinations, and domestic violence were added as far back as 2020 – the social media platform is now including additional prompts relating to natural disasters for users in Malaysia.

Through a partnership with the National Disaster Management Agency Malaysia (Nadma) and Mercy Malaysia, searches on the platform that include certain disaster-related keywords will show a notification that links to the official Nadma Twitter page and the donation page for Mercy Malaysia.
