Darfur Fund launched

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak today launched the “Dapur” For Darfur Fund to provide aid to more than two million refugees in Darfur, Sudan.
He said the conflict in Darfur had drawn the attention and sympathy of the international community and according to the United Nations, over two million people had been driven out of their homes and almost another 200,000 killed.

“Malaysia, as a leader of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) is deeply concerned with the plight of the people of Darfur. And Prime Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi as the OIC chairman, had on April 17, visited the refugee camps there.

Seeing that I have seen very little Malaysian activity in regard to Darfur, possibly because there is the relationship they have with Sudan this is hopeful news.
