KUALA LUMPUR: Silat Cekak Ustaz Hanafi Malaysia raised RM3,050 in 30 minutes yesterday for the NSTP Fund for Gaza.
The money was collected from 150 members attending the association's instructors' day annual celebration in Ampang Jaya yesterday. A donation box labelled "Tabung Palestine" was passed around to members before a presentation.
The presentation of a mock cheque was made at the NSTP office later in the afternoon. The association's acting president Md Nasir Md Arshad said: "We teach our members to be caring and not to forget their responsibilities to those outside the association.
"We don't believe in fighting. We teach self-defence to avoid fighting. Fighting is not the way to settle issues."

To contribute, members of the public and organisations can do any of the following:- Bank in or transfer funds to Maybank account number 514105-320501 under the name NSTP Fund for Gaza;- Write a cheque made out to the NSTP Fund for Gaza and send it to NSTP, 31, Jalan Riong, 59100, Kuala Lumpur; or- Make cash donations at the cashier, NSTP, 31, Jalan Riong, Kuala Lumpur or at NSTP branch offices nationwide.
