KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 19 — The Employees Provident Fund (EPF) is allocating a sum of RM10 million to aid the flood relief and recovery efforts in affected communities in line with the announcement made by the Minister of Finance Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz.

In a statement today, EPF said the aid will be channelled through various non-governmental organisations (NGOs) which are responding to the disaster and in collaboration with the Government-Linked Companies (GLC) and Government-Linked Investment Companies (GLIC) Disaster Recovery Network (GDRN).
