YLC Charity Night "Underground Rock & Roll" - Chairman's Opening Address

Good evening everyone!!

Welcome to the 13th year of the KLBar YLC's Charity Night!

Since the inception of the inaugural charity night on 30th June, 2005 spearheaded by the then YLC Chair Richard Wee. The KL Bar has raised over RM575,767.39 in donations as at 2016. These funds were channeled in support of various charities and other community initiatives.

So, this year, we thank each and every one of you – our talented performers and generous donors for generously dedicating your time (and ringgit) for this year's very worthy cause in aid of the Cleft Lip and Palate Association of Malaysia (CLAPAM). 

CLAPAM is a non-profit organisation that supports adults and children born with cleft lip and/or palate.
Funds collected will be used for life-changing surgeries, providing the gift of a beautiful smile, improved speech and breathing plus the unseen intangible benefits of greater self-esteem and personal worthiness.

We are deeply grateful to our many talented performers and the committed YLC organising team led by  New Sin Yew.
They have all worked tirelessly over the past few months to make today a reality. So now, it’s time to let our hair down, celebrate the spirit of community and immerse ourselves in music and song. KLBar, together we are a force for change. 

Thank you and have a wonderful evening! 
Goh Siu Lin
Chairman
Kuala Lumpur Bar Committee
