2 Mission Trip to Kampong Kuala Kelang, Pahang
21-23 April, CREST returned to Kuala Telang together with 8 volunteers with a singular goal: To build 11 rafts together with the community as part of disaster risk reduction for flood. We give thanks to God and to those who had been praying for us for being able to accomplish our goal in one day in good weather.

| Rafts completed by volunteers and local community | Harvest from the chili farm |
In March 2015, CREST had provided financial aid to local farmers amounting to RM 3,270 to restore their chili farm that was destroyed by flooding. The farmers informed that currently, they are able to harvest 900kg of chili every two days which is worth RM 5.50 per kilogram.
