06 In February 2020, Tzu Chi KL & Selangor was invited by National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA) to provide daily necessities and translation services to six batches of Malaysians and their families repatriated from China, Indonesia, Iran, Italy, Spain and other countries. Following multiple extensions of movement control order (MCO) and overwhelming requests for help, the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) joined hands with Tzu Chi to deliver emergency cash aid to over 2,800 refugee households across Malaysia.
