UTILISATION OF FUNDS

We are accountable for the utilisation of every cent. As you can see, we spent most of the budget to equip the canteen for the Handicapped Children Center, Banting and at the same time we are also trying to make the old folks happy.  Giving each of them some quality food for personal consumption and a meaningful Ang Pow so that they can sneak out to buy a packet of cigarette of their choice (everyone knows the secret :) ) while all of us get to chat up with them during the sponsored Chicken Rice luncheon.

The last donation goes to Fu Guang Shan Dong Zen Temple as charity fund to help this renowned Buddhist Temple in Jenjarom which is a landmark in Malaysia Tourism as well as for the Venerable Master Hsing Yun (Chinese: 星雲大師) who is  the founder of the Fo Guang Shan in Taiwan as well as in the Buddhist World known for his "Humanistic Buddhism" philosophy : 人間佛教.

BTW, Venerable Master Hsing Yun will be in town for a Buddhist Dharma Blessing Function on 24 November, 2012 at Stadium Shah Alam, Selangor.  If you are a Buddhist and do not want to miss this chance to be blessed by Master Hsing Yun, here is the details:

能够付出是一种福氣
默默的关怀与祝福别人，那是一种无形的布施。
祈愿世界和平，风调雨顺，人民安乐，
让我们每天都能在这样的祝福中醒来。
