In Response to Haze, YBM BRILiaN Distributes Masks to Motorists in Palembang

PALEMBANG — The YBM BRILiaN Palembang Regional Office
(RO) acted swiftly on Wednesday (October 7) to address environmental conditions through its haze response program. This humanitarian effort took place in strategic areas around Palembang, including the Ampera Bridge and the traffic light at the South Sumatra Provincial Legislative Council (DPRD) intersection.

The initiative also involved YBM BRILiaN RO Palembang Bright Scholarship awardees, who took to the streets. The presence of these scholarship recipients was met with great enthusiasm by motorcyclists and street vendors.

Concrete Action to Protect Public Health
This emergency response initiative was prompted by the haze affecting Palembang, which has the potential to significantly degrade air quality. This situation poses health risks, particularly for people who must continue their outdoor activities. In response to this challenge, YBM BRILiaN stepped in to provide assistance by distributing mask packages to road users.

This support initiative was designed to help the community minimize the impact of air pollution exposure while raising public awareness about the importance of maintaining respiratory health amid unfavorable weather conditions.

Commitment to Humanitarianism and Zakat Sustainability
The entire series of charitable activities took place in an orderly, smooth, and warm manner. The compassion channeled through the zakat funds of the muzakki successfully alleviated the public’s concerns regarding health threats caused by haze.

May this act of compassion continue to bring abundant blessings to both the mustahik and the muzakki. YBM BRILiaN remains committed to being responsive and at the forefront in every emergency situation to provide tangible benefits to the wider community.
