Blood donor Mohd Afiq Zakwan bin Haji Awang Metussin, 28, said his father inspired him to become an active donor. He said his first experience of donating blood was at Al-‘Afiah Hall at the Ministry of Health in 2019 with his father.
Mohd Afiq Zakwan said this during an interview at a blood donation campaign at The Garden’s Veranda at its premises in Kampong Rimba, organised in collaboration with the Blood Donation Centre of Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Saleha (RIPAS) Hospital.
Ezzatul Haziyah binti Mohammad Norariffin, 19, said the campaign serves as a platform to meet other active blood donors, share their experiences and tips on how to be an active donor.
Norfatin Asmah binti Md Afandi representing The Garden’s Veranda thanked the donors.
Nearly 50 pints of blood were collected at the campaign. – Rokiah Mahmud
