​ACT MALAYSIA COMMITS TO CLEANING HOUSES IN FLOOD AFTERMATH

Picture
​One of the most challenging tasks in the aftermath of flood is getting rid of the dirt, mud, sand, garbage, etc. trapped in homes. But a clean and livable house is such a necessary step for families to get back on their feet and move on from the traumatic experience. ACT Malaysia is now raising funds to buy 3 petrol powered water jets to help clean houses. Water jet is necessary for a faster and effective clean-up. From what we've seen, even the kitchen utensils need strong water spray to make them usable again. You can donate any amount to help purchase the water jets. Please click the picture below to donate.

Sari-sari stores are very convenient because they sell goods at small quantities. You can find 100 grams of sugar, 50 ml of cooking oil and 1 kg of rice in this store.

PROJECT #NICETOWEAR3 dianjurkan oleh ACT Malaysia

Picture
Semuanya bermula dengan satu idea.... ingin memberi kegembiraan kepada wanita2 yang gigih di Mindanao dengan cara yang paling kos efektif. Lagipun, dana tidak mencukupi kerana terdapat krisis yang berlaku di serata dunia yang juga mendapat perhatian ramai rakyat Malaysia. Dengan rahmah Allah SWT, dengan satu idea kecil dan beberapa hubungan kerjasama strategik, ACT Malaysia telah memungkinkan untuk membawa senyuman kepada wajah wanita Bangsamoro dan ia akan berbuat demikian untuk kali ke-3.
 
Pada Ramadan 2017, "NICE TO WEAR 1" telah dianjurkan. Kami mengutip pakaian Muslimah terpakai@preloved dari rakan dan keluarga dan menghantarnya ke Mindanao melalui Poslaju. Seperti yang dapat dibayangkan, kos penghantaran adalah sangat mahal dan ianya menghadkan kuantiti yang mampu dihantar. Kami terfikir, munkinkah ada cara untuk meminimumkan kos penghantaran? dan jika ada, bagaimana? Alhamdulillah, jawapannya ada pada Team Pemantauan Antarabangsa Malaysia@International Monitoring Team Malaysia. Setiap tahun, pasukan IMT Malaysia akan bertukar anggota baru. Team IMT akan berangkat ke Cotabato City, Filipina menggunakan pesawat TUDM. Dengan bantuan Tuan Abdullah Zawawi, mantan Konsul Jeneral Malaysia di Davao, Filipina, ACT Malaysia telah mendapat keizinan pihak IMT untuk mengangkut barangan yang dikumpul dari Malaysia ke Cotabato City melalui pesawat TUDM. Malah, team IMT juga telah bersama-sama team ACT mengedarkan pakaian tersebut kepada penerima sasaran dan juga menjalankan misi perubatan di salah satu lokasi pengedaran. Sejumlah 700 orang menerima hijab, jubah, blaus, baju kurung dan telekung dari Malaysia untuk "NICE TO WEAR 2".
 
Kami merancang untuk menggandakan jumlah yang kami kumpulkan tahun lalu untuk 'NICE TO WEAR 3' dan kami hanya mempunyai 10 hari lagi untuk berbuat demikian sebelum pertukaran pasukan IMT pada pertengahan bulan Mac 2019 ini. Anda boleh menjadi sebahagian daripada projek ini yang akan membawa kegembiraan kepada kehidupan ramai wanita di Mindanao yang menginginkan mempunyai sesuatu yang baik untuk dipakai tetapi malangnya mereka tidak berkemampuan. Anda berminat? Sila hantar kepada kami barangan anda atau kami akan aturkan pick-up jika anda berada di kawasan Serdang. Anda boleh menghubungi kami terus di nombor berikut: 019-2149345 dan 0176493775.
 
Terima kasih, jazakumullahu khairan.
 
💐💐💐 # nicetowear3: tarikh akhir ialah 11 Mac, 2019.
Nota tambahan: UNTUK LELAKI jika ada baju2 kurta, baju melayu dan jubah serta ketayap insyaAllah kami terima juga. 💐💐💐
💐 KEPERLUAN DANA 💐
 
Di samping sumbangan pakaian, kami juga memerlukan sumbangan wang tunai untuk pelbagai keperluan terutamanya untuk kerja distribusi nanti. IMT, walaupun mereka berpartisipasi dan membantu dalam pengedaran dll, mereka tiada bajet khusus untuk aktiviti ini. ACT perlu mendapatkan dana tunai untuk melaksanakan program distribusi nanti untuk kos2 seperti pengangkutan, makanan dll. Kami dengan rendah hati merayu sumbangan wang tunai untuk tujuan itu juga. Nombor akaun kami:
Maybank 562142713126. 
(nama acct: Team Caring Action (M) Berhad).
 
Jazakumullahukhairan kathiira atas sokongan anda kepada program-program ACT Malaysia.

​SHEIKH ABU HURAIRAH ABDULRAHMAN U. UDASAN
GRAND MUFTI BANGSAMORO
(supports ACT Malaysia's Bantuan Iftar Ramadan 2017 @ AL-BIR 1438H)

“Saya berharap ACT Malaysia terus menjalankan aktiviti Ramadannya di Mindanao tahun ini yang tentunya akan memberi manfaat kepada masyarakat miskin. Cabaran membiayai aktiviti ini tentunya meningkat setiap tahun kerana lebih ramai masyarakat di seluruh dunia yang menderita dan memerlukan perhatian. Saya sangat berterima kasih kepada rakyat Malaysia yang mulia yang membiayai aktiviti aktiviti ini setiap tahun. Walaupun di ketika ini ramai umat Islam di seluruh dunia menghadapi banyak isu-isu kemanusiaan, kami Bangsamoro sangat berterima kasih kerana anda tidak lupa kepada saudara-saudara anda di Mindanao. Jazaakumullahu khayran kathira dan saya berharap anda akan terus membantu dan mendoakan kami”.​

“I hope that ACT Malaysia continues to conduct Ramadan activities in Mindanao this year that will benefit the poor communities. The challenges of funding these activities are increasing every year as more and more communities around the world experience suffering that also requires attention. I am very thankful to the generous Malaysians who are funding the activities every year. Amidst the various humanitarian issues the Muslim ummah is facing all over the world,  we Bangsamoro are grateful that you still do not forget your brothers and sisters in Mindanao. Jazaakumullahu khayran kathira and I hope that you will continue to help us and please keep us in your prayers”.


Situasi Kemanusiaan di Mindanao
 
Filipina, sebuah negara miskin adalah tempat tinggal kepada lebih 100 juta orang. Ia adalah salah satu Negara yang paling banyak bencana di dunia, di kedudukan ketiga di antara 171 negara dalam Indeks Risiko Dunia 2015. Mengalami sekitar 20 taufan setahun, lima daripadanya biasanya menyebabkan kerosakan besar, banjir kilat dan tanah runtuh.
 
Di tengah-tengah latar belakang ini adalah Mindanao, pulau kedua terbesar di Filipina. Di Mindanao, defisit makanan menjadi lebih parah dengan kesan konflik bersenjata selama beberapa dekad yang menyebabkan wujudnya pelarian di dalam Negara (Internally Displaced Persons). Menurut World Food Program, di antara tahun 2000 dan 2010, lebih daripada 40% daripada keluarga di dalam telah dipaksa berpindah @ “displaced” sekurang-kurangnya sekali, yang membawa kepada kemerosotan taraf hidup. Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM), yang paling teruk terjejas oleh konflik bersenjata, adalah daerah yang paling miskin di Filipina.
 
Di dalam ARMM, Maguindanao adalah konsisten di dalam senarai kawasan paling miskin di Filipina. Kedudukannya adalah ke-4 paling miskin dalam 2006-2012 dengan 54.5% kadar kemiskinan, bermakna lebih daripada separuh daripada penduduk tidak mampu keperluan asas seperti makanan dan air. Baru-baru ini, Maguindanao telah dikelompokkan dengan 4 wilayah lain sebagai yang paling miskin di Filipina (2012-2015).
 
Cotabato City adalah sebuah bandar bersempadan dengan Maguindanao dan telah mengambil sebilangan besar orang-orang pelarian pada masa lalu. Ramai daripada mereka yang melarikan diri berpindah ke bandar kepada saudara-mara mereka. Mereka yang tidak mempunyai saudara mara di bandar menjadi setinggan dan tetap hidup dalam kemiskinan. Di samping itu, bandar Cotabato juga mempunyai penduduk miskin Bandar atau “urban poor”, yang tinggal di kawasan “slums”.
 
Kekurangan makanan adalah masalah utama bagi ramai orang di Maguindanao dan Cotabato City. Statistik ARMM 2015 mendedahkan bahawa sejumlah 31,000 kematian kanak-kanak dikaitkan dengan kekurangan zat makanan, yang mewakili 45% daripada jumlah kematian kanak-kanak. Terdapat juga 3.7 juta kes-kes kekurangan zat makanan termasuk cirit-birit, jangkitan pernafasan akut dan anemia. Ini adalah kesan daripada ibu bapa yang tidak mempunyai akses kepada mata pencarian kerana kerap berpindah disebabkan oleh konflik bersenjata.
 
Walaupun situasi keamanan telah meningkat dengan ketara dalam tahun-tahun kebelakangan ini, ramai yang masih hidup dalam kemiskinan. Konflik bersenjata telah memberi kesan buruk jangka panjang kepada penduduk yang berpendapatan rendah. Statistik telah menunjukkan bahawa daerah Maguindanao masih termiskin di Filipina dan mempunyai masalah kekurangan mekanan yang meluas. Kajian WFP menunjukkan kadar sangat rendah pelajar pelajar yang tamat sekolah rendah dan pertumbuhan terbantut (yang disebabkan oleh kekurangan zat makanan yang kronik) di kalangan kanak-kanak bawah lima tahun.
 
PROGRAM BANTUAN IFTAR RAMADAN (AL-BIR) telah menjadi projek tahunan ACT Malaysia sejak penubuhannya pada tahun 2008. Setiap Ramadan, ACT cuba untuk menyampaikan bantuan makanan kepada masyarakat termiskin di Maguindanao dan Cotabato City. Tahun lepas sahaja, bekalan makanan untuk 1 minggu diberikan kepada 210 keluarga di Maguindanao. makanan berbuka puasa telah diagihkan kepada 1,400 keluarga di Maguindanao dan Cotabato City. Di samping itu, 110 keluarga dibekalkan dengan 26 liter air minuman yang tulen kerana akses kepada air minuman yang selamat juga adalah satu masalah di kalangan golongan miskin.
 
ACT Malaysia merayu kepada individu dan organisasi untuk sama sama menyokong program ini. Ramadan adalah masa yang tepat untuk berkongsi sebahagian harta kita kepada mereka yang memerlukannya. Golongan miskin di Mindanao berhak mendapat bantuan yang boleh kita berikan untuk meringankan beban yang mereka telah alami untuk beberapa dekad. Melalui bantuan anda, insyaAllah kita boleh meringankan beban mereka Ramadan ini.

Terangi Malamku- the Solar Lamps Project by ACT Malaysia
22 October 2016. Distribution of solar lamps to electricity deprived villages in Bongo Island, Parang, Maguindanao, Philippines 

Picture





​TERANGI MALAMKU, the solar lamp project will be re-started soon to answer the needs of electricity deprived communities in Maguindanao, Philippines. There are still many areas in Maguindanao which have no access to electricity and even those with access are prone to experience power outages regularly due to shortage of energy from power plants. The solar lamps will provide the much needed light for the nightly activities and will result to an enhanced living quality.

Most of those who have no electricity use kerosene lamps at night but these lamps need to be refilled all the time and not to mention, they are quite dangerous to use and emit an unpleasant smell. Solar lamps are much better alternative as they are easier to handle, safer and cheaper in the long run. If taken care of properly, it can last for years. Once charged it can last for 5 hours or more. It can also serve as a power source for charging phones. Contact us to join!​

​COVID-19: RELIEF FOR THE NEEDY targets trishaw and tuk-tuk drivers in Cotabato City and Maguindanao, Philippines this March 2020

Everyone is feeling the crisis brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, even more so by those whose livelihood are directly affected like the trishaw and tuktuk drivers. In Cotabato City, income for these drivers has plummeted because of lack of passengers due to the community quarantine in place.

ACT Malaysia with the help of some generous souls reaches out to these drivers and helps to lessen the burden of putting food on the table by giving them rice.

WHY ACT MALAYSIA FOCUSES ON MINDANAO

Humanitarian Situation in Mindanao
A combination of armed conflict, corrupt government and natural disasters has left most of Mindanao population struggling to survive. In a recent study of National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) of the Philippines, The five-province, two-city Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) posted the highest poverty incidence among families in the country’s 17 regions nationwide in 2012, with Lanao del Sur posting the highest at 68.9% and Maguindanao at 57.8%. Nationwide. 22 out of 100 families were estimated to be poor in the 1st semester of 2012. In the ARMM, the figure is more than twice, at 47 families out of 100. In Lanao del Sur, the figure is thrice the national average, at 69 out of 100 families and Maguindanao at 58 out of 100 families. In three years, 2009 to 2012, Maguindanao’s poverty incidence rose by as much as 20.2%.

The government considers a Filipino family poor if monthly earnings are less than the poverty threshold. In the 1st semester of 2012, poverty threshold for a family of 5 was at P5,458 per month to meet basic food needs. If non-food needs -- such as clothing, housing, transportation, health, and education expenses, and others -- are added to the threshold, cut off in 2012 went up to P7,821 earnings a month.

Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Arsenio Balisacan explained that problems with peace & security played a substantial role in the increased poverty incidence in some provinces in Mindanao. That coupled with succession of natural disaster mainly in the form of heavy flooding due to typhoons have made living conditions worse for many people especially in Cotabato and Maguindanao area. Last month alone, an estimated 30,000 people in Maguindanao and Cotabato were uprooted from their homes due to flooding.

And historically Mindanao people or the Moros have been at war with whom they regard as colonials (the Spaniards, Americans and later Filipinos).  The land is continually under arms struggle since the 17th century thus causing instability and underdevelopment.
