“So, don't forget this afternoon bring all you have, be it rings, bracelets and so on. If you don't have RM1,000, bring RM3,000 to donate.

“And if you don't have the money now you can bank it in to our CIMB account,” Annuar said as he read the account number twice, drawing laughter from attendees.
