In a statement, the organiser expressed their appreciation to all parties involved. “We sincerely thank our co-organiser, The Federation of Kuching, Samarahan & Serian Division Chinese Associations Youth Section, and the Sarawak General Hospital Blood Bank, who made this campaign a smooth and successful one,” said a spokesperson from the association.
