This annual run successfully garnered support and attention from many Malaysians although it was conducted virtually following the standard operating procedures set by the Health Ministry.
TLJCF's chief executive officer Mohd Ikmal Izam Zaini said that though this run was greatly affected by the pandemic, Malaysians still showed their eagerness and enthusiasm in helping cancer patients.
"Every cloud has a silver lining. Since this year's Laksamana Run took place virtually, we have received participation not only from Johor, but also from all over the country.," said Ikmal.
This year, Laksamana Run successfully collected an outstanding amount of funds, more than RM800,000, from their sponsors.
"We really appreciate the gracious support that we have received especially from our major sponsors, Johor Corp, WCT Holdings Bhd, Berjaya Corp Bhd, PIJ Holdings Sdn Bhd, Kumpulan Prasarana Rakyat Johor Sdn Bhd, 7-Eleven Malaysia Sdn Bhd and Dialog Group Bhd for supporting us to continue the effort in helping cancer patients." said Ikmal.
The event also received generous contributions from MMC Corp Bhd, Ranhill SAJ Sdn Bhd, REDTone International Bhd and many more organisations that showed their support for the event.
As with previous events, the Johor Royal Family sanctioned their blessing towards the Laksamana Run, especially Tunku Tun Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah who has always been Laksamana Run's royal patron.
To date, TLJCF has provided more than RM8.1 million helping 2,000 cancer patients to receive medical treatment in Johor. - NST
