Hotshots's video: Abang Viva Viral tiktok Malaysia banjir 2021 Love by malaysians our un-sung hero with a great heart

‘Abang Viva’ or Azwan Omar is probably one of the nation’s most loved Malaysians at the moment. With only RM50 in his pocket and a boat strapped to the roof of his Perodua Viva, he had Malaysian social media buzzing as he made his way from Melaka to help rescue flood victims in Selangor. In an exclusive interview with Gempak, Azwan said that he was moved to help flood victims in Selangor after reading about them. “My heart was moved, and I told myself that I must help with the relief efforts. “Even though this calamity has struck others, for me it is a test for us, together.” “Puchong was my first location before going to Sri Muda, Shah Alam,” he said. “I went there based on the information I received from fellow volunteers, and I would go to areas that haven’t received any type of help and will try to evacuate as many victims as I could.” Azwan added that after helping people in Selangor, he went back to Melaka to ask for his parents’ blessings so he could continue his journey to Pahang. He added that the Viva he used on his rescue missions belonged to his late sister and the car has been used by his father ever since, before Azwan asked him for permission to use it to help with the flood relief efforts. Azwan also revealed that he is also taking care of two of his late sister’s children apart from his parents. He shared that while he has been receiving donations from the public, he would usually decline donations given to him but some directly transfer the money to him. “So what did I do with the money? I would go to the communities who didn't want to move out from their home and asked them what they needed, and I would go out and get the supplies for them. “That is how I use the money people gave to me.” As the 29-year-old machine operator became one of the many heroes that emerged from the disaster in their selflessness to help fellow Malaysians, he said he never expected to go viral, and he’d wished he could turn back time as the responsibility people entrusted to him now are huge. However, admitted that being known made it easier for him now to get enough information to help those who are in need.
