00:00 "Today, the Amno-Malaysia youth movement and the Sabil and Penyelaman sports club will
00:07 go to Kelantan and Tuanganganu to help our fellow victims of the flood disaster.
00:19 As we are aware, the flood situation is getting worse and there are also deaths.
00:29 Today, the Amno-Malaysia youth movement will go there until the weekend to see what kind
00:38 of help we can provide.
00:41 We have prepared a boat with an engine that will be placed at the east coast, in Pasir Putih,
00:50 Kelantan.
00:51 The boat will be used by the Sabil and Penyelaman sports club to help the victims.
01:00 At the same time, we have gathered all the Amno-Malaysia youth to donate RM15,000.
01:15 We will provide them with clean water, mineral water, dry food and toiletries.
01:29 Tomorrow, we will be in Pasir Mas, Pasir Pesut, Tanah Merah.
01:39 We will be helping to clean the houses that have been flooded.
01:47 This is the first phase of help.
01:50 As we are aware, there are still places where the water level is very high.
01:55 God willing, the second phase of help will be after the flood.
02:00 We will be helping to clean the houses, mosques and schools.
02:08 We have 8 four-wheel drive vehicles.
02:14 Along the way, we will be welcomed by Sabil from Pahang and Terengganu.
02:21 We will be gathering in Pasir Putih, Kelantan tonight.
02:24 We expect that there will be at least 40 to 50 people present for the first phase.
02:33 In the second phase, we will be moving all the Amno-Malaysia youth to the East Coast and disaster areas
02:43 to help with the cleaning process.
02:47 This is the phase where we will be helping with the relocation.
02:52 We see that the need for boats in these areas is very high.
02:58 That is why we have received a donation from a company that is donating to the Amno-Malaysia Youth Movement
03:06 to give us a boat.
03:08 This boat can be used to help us in the area.
03:11 How much will the first phase cost?
03:14 We estimate that the first phase will cost around RM40,000 including the boat.
03:20 We have RM40,000 including the boat and the goods.
03:25 So, there is a value in it? Yes, there is.
03:28 So, what are the benefits of this?
03:32 Of course, we will be doing the same work.
03:36 For me, this mission is not a party issue, it is not a national issue, it is not a religious issue.
03:43 This is a matter of humanity.
03:45 When it comes to humanity, we are not just talking about helping the party.
03:49 We are helping everyone.
03:51 We will go to the area and help the youth, whether they are Passionate, Faithful or any other type of youth.
03:58 They can work with us.
04:00 This boat is located in Pasir Butik and is sponsored by Skot Sabit.
04:05 But if it is needed, we can offer it to the Passionate Youth.
04:10 So, we can help.
04:12 This is not a political issue.
04:14 This is a political issue.
04:16 This is a matter of how we can help the people below.
04:22 Thank you.
04:25 Thank you.
04:28 Thank you.
04:30 Thank you.
04:32 Thank you.
