GOING BEYOND 2 MERCY MALAYSIA ANNUAL REPORT 2018 COVER RATIONALE MESSAGES GOING BEYOND With 19 years of experience in humanitarian response and medical relief, MERCY Malaysia continues to set standards and reach new heights in 2018 despite drastic changes in the country due to the unprecedented change in government. While the country grapples with the historic change, MERCY Malaysia also underwent a strategic restructuring. The Headquarters was relocated, organisation chart redrawn and a 3-year roadmap towards sustainable growth drawn up. Among the most significant was having the building of Shelters accepted as a key pillar of MERCY Malaysia during the Recovery and Reconstruction stage, following the series of earthquakes in Lombok and Palu, Indonesia, that left thousands of people homeless overnight. The improved coordination and systematic response was possible only with the strong support of volunteers, staff, donors and local partners.

MERCY Malaysia ANNUAL REPORT 2014 1 MERCY Malaysia ANNUAL REPORT 2014 2 COVER RATIONALE For the year 2014, our theme is ‘The Art of Caring’, this was inspired by the crisis that occurred in Gaza and Syria that caused major devastation to their civilians. We witnessed the compassion of the Malaysian people who made aiding those who were affected by the conflict, their utmost priority. The public’s contribution did not stop there, the East Coast Floods we experienced in December received astounding response from the Malaysian public. Such goodness was heart warming to MERCY Malaysia and we wanted to dedicate this year’s theme to all of whom that shared what they had with those that did not have. Because of them, we were able to reach out to the affected population with humanitarian aid that was critically needed. Despite the disasters, what we saw was overwhelming altruism from the public, domestically and internationally. MERCY Malaysia understands and appreciates the dedication and continual support of our volunteers in our work. The commitment of volunteers to our missions in Malaysia and overseas produced successful results for our beneficiaries by improving the quality of their lives. The call to serve overrides every barrier, which is why MERCY Malaysia prides ourselves on being a medical relief society whose volunteers come from every walk of life. The willingness of volunteers to selflessly give to those in need is an art form they have perfected. MERCY Malaysia ANNUAL REPORT 2014 3 CONTENTS 04 36 MESSAGES OUR WORK 05 From the Chairman
