S.Krishnamoorthy needs our help

Malaysia Nanban highlighted the plight of S. Krishnamurthy, 19, who has been unable to secure a permanent job and is currently living in poverty with his family.
Krishnamurthy, who lives in Port Klang, became well known after helping save 19 passengers from a ferry fire last year. He said that although many people had promised to help him get a job, nothing had materialised so far.

It is sickening to see a person who risked his life to save 19 others during a ferry tragedy a few years back was cheered by many for his bravery act at that time and as time goes by, he became the forgotten hero.
You do a ‘teh tarik experiment’ in space, and you would be remembered forever! You bring back a silver medal after winning in the Olympics, and you would be remembered forever! You save 19 lives without even thinking about your own life, and you would definitely be forgotten, let alone the one who did it was an Indian. Welcome to Malaysia everyone.
Early this year, The Star wrote: “For the 19-year-old, it’s all about surviving as he is helping his family pay off debts for their house in Pandamaran, Klang. Krishnamoorthy dropped out of school when he was 12 and was forced to work, as his father was involved in a road accident and could no longer support the family. His mother meanwhile had to stop work recently because of asthma.” Looking at his situation, our hero definitely needs our help guys!For those who wants to contribute something to Krishnamoorthy, feel free to contact the following numbers (Thanks to RaajaRox): 016-6179404 or 016-9960804
