UNICEF Malaysia : Unite For Children
Anyone ever heard about Unicef Malaysia?
Basically, UNICEF is working with the Government of Malaysia to ensure a “protective environment” for all children free from violence, abuse and discrimination.
I am lucky, most of us are lucky.
But there are a part of children who never go to school and they are living in a 'dirty' environment, where they have no clean water supply and basic needs.
I have :
Electronic gadgets (God knows what I'm gonna do with these)
Nice clothes ( all still in shopping bag)
Water supply, electrical and Broadband!
Entertaiment!
What they really have?
Do they know how to use computer?
Are they living in a good environment?
Is their family love them?
I am so loved by the people around me. I have friends and family. They are all my back up plans when I'm screwed all I'm slightly out of my path.
Are all the children lucky as I am?
Let's talk about Child Abuse
Most of the cases are hidden behind the doors. Only certain cases, which caused main injury or death will be reported. How many of them are abused by others? Silent abusement make it difficults for us where we are unable to get accurate determination of child abuse.
How about HIV and AIDS?
It's curable, if we could treat them earlier before everything is getting too late. Malaysia is one of the fastest growing country of HIV and AIDS determination. We are dominated by injecting drugs or ramdom sexual activities.
One of the statics stated the proportion of women reported with HIV has increased dramatically in the last decade, from 4% of new cases in 1995 to 19% of new cases in 2008. Ministry of Health data show that in 2008, more housewives tested HIV-positive than sex workers, with a ratio of 1 sex worker for every five housewives.
Relatively, babies are on high risk of HIV and AIDS infection. Thankfully, out government takes prevention for those pregnant women who infected by the deathly virus. It does reduce the number of cases reported in previous years.
In such cases, children are helpless. They are vulnerable and they lived with no dignity.
We can make a different, if we care.
Learn about HIV and AIDS. Protect yourself and the people you love.
Study the research. Understand the child issue and protect their right.
Commit time to contribute in programs that help children in Malaysia and around the world.
Believe in this.
We are capable. We can give them a second chance. We can make them live happily and go for school. We could give them vaccination and medical treatment.
All children deserve equally right and protection as we are.
We needs to combine the power among us to make these happen.
Literally. Financially. Commitments.
No single organisation can take on the task of saving children alone.
Unicef is not funded by the United Nations. They depends on voluntary contributions.
Donation also can be made by by set up a monthly direct debit as low as RM38 per month. It's only costs you a teh tarik a day. You need to have a credit card for this option.
