Friends!
Are you prepared my friends that right in Kuching, we have so many poor
people?
We know of a family at the end of Nanas Road West, Kg Kudei Lama who is
in a very terrible situation.
The family is living in a squalid condition, it is an inhuman condition
not fit for living,
The condition is so much worse than what we saw in third world country
like Cambodia.
You will be shocked to the core at their living condition.
The three siblings came from a dysfunctional family, we are here to help
them in whatever ways. Yes, aptly this year's church theme is families
sent on a mission... that is what we are called to do.
Irene aged 19 years old, is the eldest daughter of her mother (the late
Amoi, a single mother, died at the age of 36 last November of kidney failure.
She did not have the means to go for kidney dialysis). Irene is also a
single mother with a baby Iriyana who is 15 months old, a bundle of joy, always
smiling. Iriyana is being looked after
by an aunty. An account has been opened for Irene so donors could chip in to
help the family. This is a new beginning for them.
Jessica is the second daughter of late Amoi, aged 14 years old dropped
out from school in Form 2. Now residing at Balai Ringin with an aunty
possibly to escape poverty at Kg Kudei Lama.
Alexander Maxwell aka Tambi is the third child of late Amoi, at age 10
years old only started school on
Tambi came to the attention of the SKUP volunteers during the daily
delivery of food. Before, he collects scrap iron in the neighbourhood to
feed himself. Tambi is the apple of all the volunteers' eyes - everybody loves
him because he is always smiling eventhough he does not talk very much.
We need good people to help repair their dilapidated house, and to get
Irene to and return from the coffeeshop where she is working and residing to
look after her siblings.
Is it possible to get the whole family out of Kg Kudei as the
environment that is not too healthy?

P.S.
Kg Kudei Lama is just at the end of Nanas Road West, right behind the
Unaco Supermarket.
(Kg Kudei Lama is the slums of Kuching, or the Calcutta of Kuching to
put in more crudely.)
The children's uncle is a security guard at the SK Combined school.
He has a son, Edwin who is the same age as Alexander.
