WiLAT Malaysia: Humanitarian Logistics Flood Relief Mission

The post-flood relief mission, named the Humanitarian Logistics Tour, took place on December 9, 2024. This initiative was a collaborative effort involving various organizations, including Women in Logistics and Transport (WiLAT), The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) Malaysia, KK Super Mart, IKK, Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), the Malaysian Headmasters Association Kedah, the Kedah Malay Teachers Association, the Kedah Malay Teachers Cooperative, and the Kubang Pasu District Fire and Police Headquarters. Under the theme “No Barriers, WiLAT Malaysia and WMIK Ready for Action,” the mission aimed to alleviate the challenges faced by flood victims by providing logistical support. The relief efforts focused on two schools: SK Seri Banai, which covers the Hosba and Kodiang zones, and SK Kepala Batas, which includes the Tunjang and Air Hitam zones. Assoc. Prof. Ts. Dr. Jessica Ong FCILT, Chairperson of WiLAT Malaysia and the program, emphasized that the spirit of solidarity and dedication in assisting communities—especially in the aftermath of flood disasters—demonstrates the unity of the people.
