Singapore's RLAF opens up channels for donations to Myanmar flood victims

All 69 mosques in Singapore, in collaboration with Rahmatan Lil Alamin Foundation (RLAF), are participating in a fund raising effort in aid of flood victims in Myanmar.

According to a statement by the RLAF, 12 out of 14 states and regions in Myanmar are suffering from the effects of severe flooding, with four regions designated as disaster zones. The cyclone-battered western state of Rakhine is the hardest hit. The RLAF notes that over 100 people have died and more than 1 million are deemed "critically affected" by the rising floods, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

"Thi s is the worst natural disaster since Cyclone Nargis killed nearly 140 ,000 people in May 2008," noted the RLAF in a statement.

Funds collected will be handed over to Mercy Relief which is currently on the ground to provide relief and aid in the form of food, clean water, medicine and basic necessities and possibly the rebuilding of homes devastated by the floods.
