BUKIT MERTAJAM: Well-wishers successfully raised RM100,000 for cancer treatment of Robert Maidin's wife, a visually impaired busker in Penang. Robert, whose real name is Robert Maidin, has performed along Gurney Drive for over a decade. He recently appealed for help after his wife's breast cancer spread to her lungs. Bukit Mertajam MP and Minister Steven Sim organized a charity concert in just four days, raising over RM46,000.
Sim personally contributed the remaining amount to reach the goal. Sim thanked the public for their compassion, praising Robert's dedication to his wife. He ended the post with a local phrase, wishing the couple well: "Keep on busking."
