Fear, isolation and violence that only YOU can help to take away...

Fear, isolation and violence that only YOU can help to take away...: The fight for survival is a daily battle for refugees and asylum seekers in Malaysia. Coming from countries such as Burma, refugees are forced to flee from their homelands in pursuit of safety from oppressive conditions such as confiscation of homes, forced labor, systematic rape and torture. However, their efforts to gain freedom in Malaysia are short-lived due to discrimination from local employers. Refugees and asylum seekers work in situations where they face verbal and physical abuse from employers, low/unpaid wages, and long working hours in exploitative conditions. Question is, where is the humanity in all of this?Agree to stand up against forced labor and human trafficking by signing a Petition Letter to the Prime Minister of Malaysia today!

How could you eat a cute dolphin?: Millions of people around the globe look into the future hoping for a brighter one with each new day.
But we could lose our natural gifts.
Everyday someone consumes an endangered species.
Everyday someone pollutes the ocean, killing healthy marine life.
Everyday a forest is threatened by deforestation.
Everyday wildlife gets killed for sale.Without healthy forest and marine ecosystems, our food supply would be adversely affected. Without healthy forests, we could lose our freshwater sources, ultimately depreciating our quality of life.
By helping to protect our environment, we are also protecting our livelihoods, food and water supply; securing our good quality of life and our children's bright future.

Your BFF. Your neighbor. Your evil boss. Your pet cat. RunFest is open to everyone!All forms of runners, especially newbies are welcomed. But we do have limited spots of only 1000 runners. So you know the drill, first come-first served.“PROJEK KASUT”Yes, it is fun & games. But we’re also initiating an independent community donation drive aiming to collect gently-used running shoes for the underprivileged. As a start, shoes that are collected will be donated to the Trainees of Monfort Youth Training Centre in Kinarut, Sabah. Trainees at MYTC are made of about 140 youths between the ages of 16 to 20. The donated running shoes will be used to support the school's extracurricular activities. It’s our small contribution towards building the rural communities in Malaysia.
