Perhaps the most socially responsible entrepreneur right now, influencer and chef Khairul Aming has been proactively providing aid in the form of food and other essential supplies to flood victims in Kelantan in the past few days, and is still continuing the effort today.
In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Khairul mentioned that there are new standard operation protocols (SOP) in place that allows him to begin his relief operations there beginning today from 1pm onwards. Initially, he could only deliver food and other relief items after 6pm.
So far, he has managed to provide aid to more than 7,000 flood victims from 17 critical locations in Kelantan, which is also his hometown.

Wholesale and retail company Mydin Mohamed Holdings Berhad (Mydin) managing director Datuk Ameer Ali Mydin gave Khairul permission to take goods from his premises to help the affected victims.
“You can take whatever things you need, no need to send people or credit cards. Just PM to me the credit limit you want. Let’s say you need 20,000 or 10,000; you can pay after the flood (situation) is over,” Ameer said to Khairul in a video shared on X.
News outlet The Star recently reported the Kelantan state government issuing a warning for a potential second wave of floods beginning this Wednesday (4 December).
As of 4pm yesterday (1 December), more than 150,000 individuals have been displaced by the floods, which ravaged eight states across 35 districs nationwide.
