Our Investment case Our Leadership Statement ANNUAL REPORT 2023 34 Humanitarian aid for those in need To alleviate the suffering of communities devastated by humanitarian crises, Malaysia Airports stepped up to contribute towards the relief efforts. Following the devastating earthquake in southeast Türkiye in February 2023, our airport in Istanbul, SAW, was used as a rescue and logistics hub and crisis management centre for rescue personnel and relief efforts. Our colleagues at the airport provided all necessary support and assistance including providing food and drink for those involved in the relief efforts. Donations from our employees to the Disaster and Emergency Management Authority of Türkiye (AFAD) and Turk Kızılay (Turkish Red Crescent) totalled just over EUR 5.0 million. Giving back to communities we serve In this record-breaking year in terms of profitability, we remain firmly committed to giving back to the communities we serve. Through the airport tours, we aim to inspire young aviation enthusiasts by taking them behind the scenes at various airside and landside locations, and encouraging them to engage with members of the airport community to learn first-hand about airport operations. Making a difference in the community Closer to home, our focus was centred primarily on education initiatives. A total of 21 airports in Malaysia opened their doors to over 1,800 students from 40 primary and secondary schools through the MYAirportCARES School Airport Tour programme. Over 600 B40 students around our airports benefit from our education aid programmes in which Malaysia Airports contributes back to school necessities such as uniforms, bags and other supplies as well as on-going assistance for students to buy food and books in the course of the school year. In addition, in conjunction with the CAPA Asia Aviation Summit & Sustainability Awards 2023 hosted by Malaysia Airports, a donation of smart TVs and sports equipment was made to SK Bukit Bangkong (A), a primary school in the vicinity of KUL.
