FUELLING HOPE FOR KIDNEY PATIENTS


In conjunction with the festive season, Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn. Bhd. has kick-started its Syawal charity campaign, ‘Anda Pam, Kami Derma’ to support the National Kidney Foundation of Malaysia (NKF).
For every litre of petrol pumped at Shell stations in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Negeri Sembilan on weekends starting from 15 June 2019, 315 Shell retailers will channel 1 sen (RM0.01) to NKF’s fund towards supporting underprivileged dialysis patients, as well as purchasing new dialysis machines for NKF’s dialysis centres.

Speaking during the launch ceremony with NKF, Zharin Mohd Zhafrael, National Sales Manager of Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn Bhd expressed her delight at Shell Retailers’ contribution to strengthen the support by working together with untiring effort to give back to the society.
“At Shell, our mission is to make life journeys better for all Malaysians. We want to leave a positive impact in the communities where we operate and this initiative is something prevalent that we want to embark on for all our stations nationwide. With the contribution of the fund and new dialysis machines, we want to help kidney patients restore their dignity and further improve their ability to take part in the community,” said Zharin.

“Every year, NKF needs to raise RM24.9 million to subsidise the dialysis treatments cost for 1,600 who seek dialysis treatment at our 28 dialysis centres nationwide. In Malaysia, 7,000 new patients are diagnosed with kidney failure annually. The majority of NKF’s patients are financially-challenged elderly individuals aged between 50-65 years old who cannot afford the higher cost at private medical facilities,” said Chua Hong Wee, Chief Executive Officer of NKF.

“This partnership served as a vital stepping-stone for us to continue supporting and improving lives of our dialysis patients. We are especially thankful towards Shell Malaysia who has contributed to NKF by organising this fundraising campaign which will eventually grant an additional dialysis machine to one of our 28 dialysis centres. Each dialysis machine runs between seven to ten years with maintenance and every year at least twenty dialysis machines will be replaced. We need the donations for dialysis machines to keep the treatments going for our dialysis patients. With that, we are very pleased to have tied-up with Shell,” he added.


The joyful morning culminated in a tour around the dialysis centre at the NKF office, which served to educate all the guests on the implications of kidney disease and the life-saving impact of dialysis machines for kidney patients.

According to the National Cancer Institute Malaysia, about 5,000 Malaysian women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year, and nearly half of those are under 50-years of age, but it affects men too. It is indeed unbelievable but it is happening now in Malaysia. As a male blogger and influencer, it is my duty to raise awareness to all the male out there. Do take note that there are things you may not know about breast cancer in men: 1 out 1,000 men are diagnosed with breast cancer every year in Malaysia Less than 72% of men recover from the disease as doctor’s visit is made when symptoms are more severe however symptoms of breast cancer in men and women are quite alike. Most male breast cancers are diagnosed when a man discovers a lump on his chest. But unlike women, men tend to delay going to the doctor until they have more severe symptoms, like bleeding from the nipple. At that point, the cancer may have already spread Because men have very little breast tissue, i...
