19 drug rehabilitation parolees chosen to perform umrah

SEPANG, Feb 2, 2015:

Nineteen out of 625 drug rehabilitation parolees in Baling, Kedah, have been given the opportunity to perform the umrah (minor haj) under the supervision of the National Anti-Drug Agency.

The group is sponsored by Baling Member of Parliament Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim, who is also chairman of Tabung Haji.

One of the participants, Mohd Nor Adnan, 32, said he was thankful that he was chosen to perform the holy deed.

He said although he had long held the intention of going to Mecca, his small wages had not allowed him to do so.

For Mohd Almiqdad Abdul Rashid, 24, being a guest of Allah for a second time is a huge blessing for him, and he is confident that it would be a catalyst for him to be free from drug abuse.

The entourage also includes eight personnel from the agency to provide assistance and for monitoring the parolees while they are in the Holy Land.

According to its enforcement and security director Jasri Kassim, the programme is the first of its kind organised by the agency in efforts to provide support and encouragement to those undergoing drug rehabilitation.

“We hope such programmes can be continued with sponsorships from other parties. This is part of religious activities organised by the agency for drug parolees.”

He said the 19 had been chosen based on their recovery level and commitment towards the drug rehabilitation programmes organised by the agency in Baling.

Aid mission to Gaza to leave in two batches

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 3:

The Umno Welfare Bureau’s humanitarian aid mission to Gaza is to leave in two batches, the first on Wednesday and the second on Aug 12.

Bureau chairman Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim said today that the first batch of six people would conduct an analysis to ascertain that the trip to Gaza would be safe and smooth.

The second batch would depend on the analysis of the first batch, he told reporters after closing a two-day course and training on managing safety risk and contingency.

A total of 65 people, comprising doctors, volunteers and journalists, will participate in the mission to, among others, deliver 40 tonnes of medicines and food to the Palestinians.

Abdul Azeez said the members of the mission could be divided into two groups, with one entering Gaza and the other stationed in Egypt.

“This is to ensure smooth communication between the group in Gaza and Malaysia through the group stationed in Egypt,” he said.

Meanwhile, Palestine Ambassador to Malaysia Dr Anwar al-Agha said the situation in Gaza was still tense.

Nevertheless, he believed that the members of the aid mission would have prepared themselves well and gave the assurance that they would be well received by the Palestinians.

Dr Anwar, who hails from Khan Younis in Palestine, will join the mission and help in terms of coordination in Gaza.
