Perodua has postponed the upcoming MYPerodua Nation Carnival which is scheduled for this weekend. The postponement will be until further notice as the company would not want to jeapordise the health of the visitors as well as the health of the personnel involved in the carnival.
Glad they have decided to do so and we here would also like to announce that it would be beneficial if you stay indoors and not do any outdoor activity. As I type this, I can smell the smoke in the air. I am indoors and running my home air purifier to the fullest and I can still take in a whiff of smoke once in a while. I think I bought this five or six years back, when the haze kept on becoming more prevalent. It has paid off in many ways.
Here is the official press release on the matter.
As a People First organisation, Perodua has decided to postpone the MYPerodua Nation carnival until further notice, in light of the worsening haze situation nationwide.
The carnival was supposed to take place this weekend, from 20-22 September at the Setia City Oval Lawn in Setia Alam.
“The Air Pollutant Index (API) in the vicinity has been reported to be in excess of 200, which is very unhealthy. Perodua cannot, and will not, put the health and well- being of its valued customers, visitors and staff on duty at risk,” said Perodua President and Chief Executive Officer Dato’ Zainal Abidin Ahmad.
“We apologise whole-heartedly for the inconvenience and disappointment caused by the postponement of MYPerodua Nation. We are studying all possible alternatives and will revert on the event’s status in due course,” he added.
