They were living in bad economic situations, without any source of income, their father is suffering from chronic disease, so they always need to provide special medicine for him, in addition have two sons need to pay for their university fees to continue their studying, all of this in addition to normal needs of live.

The family heard about Viva Palestina Malaysia micro loan project, and they applied for getting micro loan in Rowad society office (local partner for VPM), after they fit the project conditions, they got their loan for starting small project.

Then they have started their small project "Mini Market", and their income starts rising, and now they feel comfortable, because they can provide their father medicine, and pay some of universities fee.

Our great thank for VPM donors who change the families live in Palestine, and always support Palestinian people withstanding.

Since her inception in Jan 2009, Viva Palestine Malaysia has been unrelenting in her pursuit towards advocating justice, peace, equality and self-determination for Palestine. In more tangible forms, VPM has transferred RM 10 Million worth of funds to finance various medical, educational, agricultural, housing, micro-financing and women’s projects in Palestine.

VPM has undertaken various advocacy and awareness campaigns to mainstream the Palestinian cause. The Kuala Lumpur Palestine Film Festival (KLPFF) has proven to be very impactful in screening to the Malaysian public the sufferings and persecution of the Palestinian people under Zionist occupation of their lands.

Our fourth KLPFF2015 will screen 4 films at Publika, Solaris Dutamas from 10-11 October 2015. One of the films “The Stones Cry Out” depicts the sufferings of the Palestinian Christians who have been driven out of their ancestral lands.

Following the 4^th military onslaught of Gaza in July 2014, many university students were unable to fund their tertiary education. VPM raised RM750,000 to fund 600 students to continue their education in 7 universities in Gaza.

Concurrently, we hope to raise funds from KLPFF2015 to sponsor these students to pursue their studies until graduation. This is the investment of your generous donations towards the nation building of Palestine.

We dedicate KLPFF 2015 to the brave people of Palestine, whose resolve and spirit remain unbroken in the face of extreme odds. We salute the ordinary people of Palestine who have demonstrated extra-ordinary feats of valor and fortitude.

PRESS RELEASE

16 October 2015 / 3 Muharram 1437H

Viva Palestina Malaysia has been tracking very closely the tragic sequence of events in Palestine.

Our global partners have reported that up until 14 Oct 2015, 30 Palestinians have been murdered, many in cold blood. And 2,000 have been injured by Israel’s Occupation Forces (IOF) and fundamentalist settler terror groups since early October 2015.

A shoot-to-kill policy, among other illegal and draconian measures, have been adopted by the Israeli government in an attempt to violently suppress this mostly spontaneous popular revolt led by a new generation of Palestinians who will not accept living under Occupation and Apartheid.

The fact that Israel and its state-supported settler militias are committing their racist crimes in broad daylight and recorded live on television goes to show the level of impunity that Israel still enjoys. This simply demonstrates the deep complicity of the Superpowers and the West with the illegitimate Zionist Project in Israel and the abysmal failure of the UN to protect the basic human rights of the Palestinians.

Just like Israel’s 7 year siege of Gaza and the four massacres since 2008, there is a complete bias of the reporting of the mainstream international media and an outrageous paucity of international response to the Israeli killings and brutalities of the Palestinians in West Bank and Gaza.

VPM in solidarity with the youth led popular uprising in Palestine urges:

1 The Malaysian government though her offices in the Security Council of the UN, OIC and ASEAN to demand for a military embargo and sanction of Israel.

2 All Malaysian government linked companies (GLC) and corporations to divest from companies which are blatantly complicit in the ongoing oppression taking place at present. The Palestinian Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions National Committee (BNC) has black-listed complicit international companies, such as G4S and HP, and Israeli companies, such as Elbit Systems, that participate in Israel’s infrastructure of oppression.

3 All Malaysian NGOs and people of conscience to deplore the extra-judicial killings and brutalities of the innocent and support the humanitarian struggle of the Palestinian people in their quest for justice, freedom and equality.
