BAKTI today answered the call of help from the Pakistan flood victims. Pakistan was recently hit by the worst monsoon rain in decades, affecting some 20 million people. BAKTI raised and handed over donations to the victims of the calamitous flood in hope that it would help alleviate their pain and suffering.

BAKTI thanks the donors Giant Corporation, Mydin Mohamad Holding Bhd, Lim Kok Wing University, FFM Berhad, Lion Parkson Foundation and six pharmaceutical companies for their swift and enthusiastic contribution.
