Meanwhile, Ewon, in the same statement, said the noble effort will hopefully give some relief to the families affected.

When it comes to skincare, the first thought on our minds would be beauty products such as serums, creams, and masks. However, beauty experts and even researchers have stated that drinking more water can be just as crucial for your skin's health.
“Thank you YBR for taking care of those affected and hopefully the funds can be used as post-flood aid by the families concerned to continue with their life as usual,” he said

YBR Chairman Datuk Philip Benedict Lasimbang also hoped that the aid would be able to provide some relief for those affected.
