Micron Memory Malaysia makes a difference to the vulnerable communities in Malaysia

Over the course of the Movement Control Order (MCO), Micron Memory Malaysia Sdn Bhd has contributed a lot to both front liners and the local communities in need under the My AMCHAM Cares COVID-19 initiative.

On 11 August 2020, Micron Memory Malaysia Sdn Bhd, in partnership with AMCHAM, has allocated RM680,000 to 7 NGO’s – Rotary Club of Muar, Rotary Club of Sg Petani, Rotary Club of Butterworth, Accelerate Global, EPIC Homes, School for the Mentally Retarded Children (Penang) and Refuge for the Refugees. These organizations directly impact the B40, refugees, Orang Asli, and the stateless communities – helping them to ease the burden caused by the pandemic. A portion of this allocation will also be provided to schools in Penang (Butterworth), Kedah (Sg. Petani) and Johor (Muar) to ensure that students are well equipped with PPE to remain vigilant of the virus as they return back to school.

The Honorable Kamala Shirin Lakhdhir, the U.S. Ambassador to Malaysia, along with Amarjit Sandhu, Vice President of Micron Memory Malaysia Sdn Bhd and Siobhan Das, CEO of AMCHAM presented the cheques to these seven NGO’s at the AMCHAM office. AMCHAM extends its sincere gratitude to Micron Memory Malaysia Sdn Bhd. for going the extra mile to help the needy communities and organizations during an unprecedented crisis.
