KUALA LUMPUR: The Health Ministry (MoH) together with Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) has initiated an action coalition to encourage corporate companies in Malaysia to collaborate with the government and work together to fight the Covid-19 virus outbreak in the country. The ‘Corporate Malaysia Against COVID-19 Action Coalition’ calls on private companies, government-linked companies (GLCs) and other organisations to pledge financial support to MOH to help replenish diminishing medical supplies as the country struggles to contain the Covid-19 outbreak. As the corporation leading this call to action, TNB has pledged RM10 million to the ministry. “This financial assistance from TNB will enable the MoH to procure urgent medical and healthcare equipment necessary for the ongoing defence against the Covid-19 virus. We are hopeful that other GLCs and corporations in Malaysia will join the action coalition to help us better face this pandemic,” he added.
