Ammon News - The Embassy of Malaysia in Amman, representing the Government and People of Malaysia, contributed stationaries and cleaning supplies for more than 6,300 Palestinian refugee students enrolled in nine UNRWA schools under UNWRA Jordan.

The donation signing ceremony, held at UNRWA’s Nuzha Girls School, was attended by the Ambassador of Malaysia to Jordan, Mohamad Nasri Abdul Rahman, Acting Director of UNRWA Affairs at the Jordan Field Office, Olaf Becker, and officials from the Embassy of Malaysia and UNRWA.

The Ambassador stated that the contribution was from Malaysia’s Humanitarian Trust Fund for People of Palestine, which was established in 2002, adding that Malaysia continues to provide undivided support and solidarity for Palestinians.

During the event, Becker briefed the attendees on UNRWA's operations in Jordan, which include providing humanitarian services in education, healthcare, relief, social services, infrastructure development, and emergency response towards more than 2.3 million registered Palestinian refugees living in Jordan.

UNRWA, whose operations rely heavily on donations, stated its appreciation of the contribution by the Government and People of Malaysia. They said the contribution will support the schools to provide continuous education for refugee students.
