MIRI: The Health and Community subcommittee of Malaysian Red Crescent (MRC) Miri branch visited two families with poor socio-economic background at Tudan Desaras Phase 6.
During the visit, the subcommittee delivered a short talk which covered dangers of plastics, importance of cleanliness and healthy food to educate the family members.
The visit was then continued with a briefing by Roslan Ali from Miri City Council to the two families on the services provided and the approach to highlighting related issues to the local council.
“During the visit, the team also brought along stainless-steel food containers to be distributed to the two family members as part of the exercise to stress the dangers of plastic containers.
“These stainless-steel food containers were donated by a group of donors who wish to remain anonymous, and we would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation to this group of donors,” it said in a statement today.
It also said that such visits would be organised from time to time and hope that more volunteers could come forward to join the efforts to make the community a better place.
