Tapi bagi jiran-jiran Asia Tenggara kita seperti Laos, Kampuchea, Vietnam, Indonesia dan Thailand kesengsaraan terus melanda, dek cuaca yang tidak menentu. Nyawa terkorban, kampung dan kota ditelan bah sejak pertengahan 2011. Kita lihat begitu ramai manusia yang hilang tempat tinggal, hasil tanaman, dan mengalami kesusahan yang begitu besar, pada kala tamadun manusia bertungkus-lumus berhadapan dengan malapetaka Bumi. Dari memantau projek bantuan kemanusiaan di Afrika ke menubuhkan corak aktivisme sosial beliau yang tersendiri di Malaysia, Zashnain Zainal (@bedlamfury) akan memulakan projek Misi: Bangkok di metropolis megah Thailand: BANGKOK dari 2 Nov hingga 28 Nov 2011. Di sana, beliau akan memantau dan menaksir impak bah yang melanda ke atas komuniti terpinggir di kawasan setinggan, kumpulan tidak berumah, dan yang tinggal di jalanan. Berita berkaitan bencana biasanya memberi penekanan kepada masyarakat, dan jarang sekali membincangkan kesusahan golongan fakir miskin sebelum bencana melanda. Memandangkan betapa pentingnya usaha individu seperti Zashnain ini diberi sokongan dan bantuan, Pejabat Ahli Parlimen Lembah Pantai mengalu-alukan bantuan awam untuk mengumpulkan dana sebanyak RM2,000 dalam projek Misi: Bangkok ini. Jumlah ini akan disamakan dengan bantuan dari Ahli Parlimen Lembah Pantai sebanyak RM2,000. Semoga dengan jumlah yang tidak begitu banyak ini, saudara Zashnain akan dapat sedikit-sebanyak memberi bantuan kepada warga Thailand. Nama akaun: Ahli Parlimen Lembah Pantai Sila hantarkan emel kepada misibangkok -at- gmail -dot- com dengan makluman penghantaraan wang setelah dimasukkan. Jumlah mingguan akan diumumkan di penghujung setiap minggu, dan apabila jumlah RM2,000 telah dicapai kami akan berhenti menerima dana dari orang awam untuk projek ini. “Moga kita diberkati dengan usaha sebegini. Dipohon doa berterusan bagi membantu mereka yang memerlukan.” ===== A new month, definitely a new beginning for many Malaysians. Or so we can only hope. Our neighbours in Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand are suffering, from the carnage of Nature’s fury. Lives lost, land and cities swallowed by the raging water since mid-2011. This period saw people displaced from their homes, crops destroyed and the pinnacle of misery, as mankind fights a losing and painful battle against Nature. From covering relief work projects in Africa to jump-starting his brand of social activism in Malaysia, Zashnain Zainal (@bedlamfury) will begin the Misi: Bangkok project in Thailand’s metropolis of 12 million people: BANGKOK from 2 Nov to 28 Nov 2011. He seeks to assess the impact of the floods on the marginalised community living in the slums, homeless and on the streets. Disaster relief news usually focus on society itself, mentioning little of the people living in hardship and poverty before the floods. Seeing as how projects by individuals such as Zashnain should be supported, the Office of the Member of Parliament for Lembah Pantai welcomes all public donors to donate a total of RM2,000 for the Misi: Bangkok project. This amount will be matched by financial assistance from the Member of Parliament for Lembah Pantai amounting to RM2,000. It is hoped that with such an amount Zashnain will be able to accord whatever help he can give to the people of Thailand in this hour of their need. Account name: Ahli Parlimen Lembah Pantai Please send an email to misibangkok -at- gmail -dot- com with money transfer details, and we will acknowledge receipt. A weekly tally of public funds raised will be made at the end of each week, and once the target of RM2,000 has been reached we will stop accepting any further amount for this project. “We learn more about ourselves by embracing humanity. Keep the prayers and hope alive.” |
