I refer to your report Welfare bodies being run like businesses to get donors
and agree that it's getting more difficult by the day for the welfare
institutions to obtain assistance from the public, the main reasons
being the skyrocketing cost of living in the City, and the difficulty in
differentiating those desperate institutions that sorely need help and
those that may receive regular funds from Government bodies and large
corporations.
The public would be well served by organisations that can provide
such updated information, and in this matter, the efforts made by non
profit organisations such as www.Hati.org.my
which is in effect a "one stop shop" for all welfare institutions in
Malaysia, highlighting their functions and their needs, is much
appreciated and is to be further encouraged.
The poor, the disabled and the under privileged among us deserve all
the help they can get, and I really hope to see that mainstream papers
like The Star and the others actively ensure that such efforts to help
the needy would be vigorously supported.
