PADANG (INDONESIA), Oct 8 — Aman Malaysia’s next aid mission to Padang would involve the supply of baby milk powder, baby biscuits, diapers, women’s sanitary pads, launch a charity fund, provide more medical aid and look into the possibility of providing tents and blankets.
Aman and Pemuda Umno International Bureau Chairman Datuk Ahmad Zaki Zahid told Bernama after his visit to Padang here today that he would brief Aman and Pemuda Umno regarding the needs of the Padang quake victims.
Ahmad Zaki who was working in concert with the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (Hipmi) in Padang to distribute Aman’s first reconnaissance aid supply, said the first mission involved the supply of baby milk powder, food, pampers.
“Next we will discuss with Hipmi to help build a mosque and prepare tents and shelter as make-shift schools for children. I will table a report to Aman and Umno Youth.
“We are fortunate that we have a distribution network in place through Hipmi which can identify areas that need assistance since aid from other organisations have not reached such areas yet.
“Even when we arrived, there were NGOs from Malaysia who sought our help to distribute their goods and aid to affected places,” said Ahmad Zahid.
Ahmad Zahid’s counterpart, Hipmi Peduli - Gempat Sumatera Barat Chief, Yuliandre Parwis said so far, they had distributed close to 20 tonnes worth of food supply and goods to areas that were badly hit and some in the Pariaman district have yet to receive aid.
“They have a lot of rice, instant noodles and bottled water. What they do need are medical supply, more doctors, more milk,” said Ahmad Zahid.
His statement was proven right today when the villagers of Kampung Dalam, Dusun Jua Banyak in the Pariaman district came in droves when baby milk powder was distributed.
