4678) HELIZA TERUJA BERPELUANG BANTU MANGSA DI PALU – SINAR HARIAN – 14/10/18

SEPANG – Bekas peserta Akademi Fantasia Musim kelima, Heliza Helmi tidak dapat menyembunyikan keterujaannya berpeluang menyertai misi bantuan kemanusiaan Majlis Perundingan Pertubuhan Islam Malaysia (Mapim) ke Palu, Sulawesi Tengah, Indonesia.

Penyanyi dan pengacara terkenal itu berkata beliau bersyukur dipelawa pihak Mapim untuk menyertai misi kali kedua pertubuhan berkenaan kerana secara peribadi berasa begitu terkesan dengan nasib saudara seagama yang diuji dengan tragedi dahsyat gempa bumi dan tsunami pada petang 28 September lalu.

“Alhamdulillah hasrat untuk pergi sendiri ke lokasi tragedi itu tercapai dan saya akan sedaya upaya dengan kemampuan yang ada untuk membantu pihak Mapim mengedarkan pek bantuan kepada mangsa apabila tiba di sana.

“Penyertaan dalam misi ini juga pastinya akan memberi pengajaran tersendiri kepada saya,” katanya ketika ditemui Bernama selepas majlis pelepasan misi kemanusiaan Mapim ke Palu disempurnakan Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur di sini hari ini.

Heliza, 32, yang turut ditemani adiknya, Nur Hazwani Afiqah Helmi, 21, juga berharap orang ramai terus memberikan bantuan kepada mangsa di Palu yang jelas memerlukan sokongan untuk memulakan kehidupan baharu.

Bagi rakan artis, Datuk Seri Eizlan Yusof yang mempunyai tauliah Leftenan Kolonel (Bersekutu) Angkatan Pertahanan Awam (APM), beliau juga berhasrat mengikuti misi bantuan kemanusiaan ke Palu.

“Sepatutnya saya menyertai misi ini, namun atas sebab-sebab tertentu yang tidak dapat dielakkan, saya terpaksa tarik diri dan mungkin akan ke sana (Palu) dalam misi Mapim seterusnya,” katanya.

Gempa bumi dan tsunami yang melanda Palu setakat ini telah mengorbankan lebih 2,000 nyawa dengan lebih 30,000 lagi penduduk terkesan akibat tragedi berkenaan. – Bernama

4677) WAN AZIZAH REMINDS RELIEF MISSION VOLUNTEERS TO TAKE CARE OF OWN HEALTH – THE STAR ONLINE – 14/10/18

SEPANG (Bernama): Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail on Sunday (Oct 13) reminded volunteers in relief mission to Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, to prioritise their own health when in disaster-stricken areas.

She said this was because they were exposed to the risk of infectious diseases such as malaria, which normally spread after a catastrophe.

 “Apart from providing assistance to those hit by the disaster, volunteers should also take care of their own health.

“They should be wary of malaria as the disease normally spread after an occurrence of natural disasters,” she said at the flagging-off of the Sulawesi Emergency Aid Mission at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) here on Sunday.

Wan Azizah said not everybody would be willing to become volunteers to areas worst affected by a disaster except the highly-committed ones as it required a high-level of commitment, fortitude and resilience due to the challenges in performing their task.

Hence, she said, the government was highly grateful and appreciated the role played by organisations that mobilised aid missions, including Mapim, which had already sent its mission soon after the earthquake struck on Sept 28.

This humanitarian effort also received praise from Indonesian President Joko Widodo and the people of the republic, she said.

Thus far, the devastating earthquake and tsunami that struck the island of Sulawesi has killed over 2,000 people, with an estimated 152,000 victims still missing.

Meanwhile, Ahmad Sani said Mapim’s second mission, comprising volunteers from the Malaysian Defence Force (APM) and the Malaysian Islamic Consumers Association, aimed to distribute 3,000 food packs to families.

The mission, expected to be in Sulawesi until Oct 25, also brought along other essential items, including milk and baby diapers, he said, adding that as of Sunday, Mapim has managed to raise RM500,000  from the target of  RM1.2mil. – Bernama.
