The mission continues...
PERKAS continues with their mission to engage the Semai in economic and social activities in Pos Betau, Pahang in their effort to uplift their socio-economic status. PERKAS, already in their second year in Pos Betau, continues to receive aids from well wishers in the form of used clothes, reading materials, bicycle, basic groceries, prayer mats, skull caps, festive monies, etc. Ecolife Basecamp (www.ecolofecamp.blogspot.com) continues with their weekly sponsorship of meals for the Semai who attended free Islamic classes, also initiated by Ecolife.
