KANGAR: Nestled in the foothills just 3km from the Thai border is a half-forgotten old folks home built on Malaysia’s tin rush legacy. Star Foundation got wind of this and has stepped in to give support. In 1956, Chong said former Perlis exco member, the late Datuk Loh Ah Tong, urged the community to start the old folks home. Star Foundation has provided the home with RM20,000 for this year. Star Foundation is the charitable arm of Star Media Group Bhd, aimed at delivering meaningful initiatives with lasting outcomes to a diverse group of beneficiaries.
