  "summary": "The recent Musicians for Malaysia charity concert, themed Rocking For A Cause, successfully raised RM85,500 for veteran performers, according to the New Straits Times. The annual fundraiser, held at Kelab Golf Negara Subang (KGNS) in Petaling Jaya, featured three hours of non-stop live music from 21 musicians, mostly veterans, who contributed to the music industry. The event also paid tribute to active veteran performers aged 75 and above, with ten musicians suffering from illnesses and in need of medical assistance directly benefitting from the proceeds. Notable musicians in attendance included Alfred Ho, Tinoy Soliano, Radha Krishnan, Frankie Tan, Ruzlan Omar, Rusli Musif, Royston Sta Maria, Kenny Tay, and MfM president Francis Danker.",
