Parit Yaani crash: Johor govt to bear medical costs, provide monthly aid to orphaned siblings, says exco

The Johor government, through the Johor State Islamic Religious Council (MAINJ), has pledged to cover the medical costs, including plastic surgery, for the two orphaned siblings who survived an accident on November 1 near Parit Yaani. State Islamic Religious Affairs Committee chairman Mohd Fared Mohd Khalid announced that the assistance will also include a monthly allowance for the siblings, Hasya Fahira Zulkifli, 11, and Muhammad Adam Mohd Hardi, 8.

The elder sibling, Hasya, is scheduled to undergo plastic surgery on her leg, while her younger brother, Adam, requires follow-up treatments. The state government will continue to monitor the siblings' progress and expects them to receive Survivors' Pension benefits from the Social Security Organisation (PERKESO) once their father's contributions are utilized.

The accident, which occurred near Jalan Yong Peng-Muar, resulted in the deaths of the siblings' parents, Tengku Syafirana and Mohd Hardi Mohd Husin, after their multi-purpose vehicle was crushed by a tar-laden lorry.
