"In the spirit of Malaysia Day, we would like to call upon people to show kindness to one another regardless ethnic background and cultural belief, through the act of donating blood to help those who are in need," said Joanne Loh Pei Sze, Kuala Terengganu Acting Branch Manager for Allianz General Insurance Company (Malaysia) Berhad.

Apart from the blood donation drive, Allianz Malaysia is also collaborating with the National Transplant Resource centre and the participating hospitals under the Ministry of Health in setting up booths to facilitate the registration of organ donation pledges. 

"Currently, there are more than 19,000 Malaysians reported to be on the waiting list for an organ transplant1. With this initiative we hope that there will be more awareness created on organ donation," concluded Joanne. 

Those interested are encouraged to check their eligibility as a donor at the National Blood Centre's official website www.pdn.gov.my for blood donation, and the National Transplant Resource Centre's official website www.dermaorgan.gov.my for organ donation pledge. 

Allianz Malaysia encourages members of the public to head over to their nearest location to support this noble cause.
