"The response to MAGGI® "Jom Masak & Berkongsi Bersama" campaign has been amazing as we've received a total of more than 400,000 contest entries! Through our campaign partnership with the charity homes, we will now channel the raised funds to these deserving communities as part of our corporate social responsibility (CSR) activation and thus mirroring the hope, humanity and spirit of the Harvest Festival," said Geetha.



Datul Asnan Yunus Chung, Chairman of the Malaysian Red Crescent Society in Sabah extended his heartfelt gratitude for the contributions for the MAGGI® campaign.  "The funds will be used to improve the conditions of our transporation vehicles to ensure we are able to efficiently deliver food and other critical supplies to the underserved communities, especially in the rural areas," said Datuk Asnan.
