Knorr, salah satu jenama makanan terkemuka di Malaysia dan selurus dunia, melancarkan daya usaha untuk menyediakan makanan yang sedap dan lagi berkhasiat buat golongan yang tiada tempat tinggal dan golongan miskin sepanjang bulan Ramadhan.

Kempen ini bertujuan membangkitkan semangat beramal jariah orang ramai sepanjang bulan suci ini. Inilah bulannya pemberian zakat – salah satu daripada lima rukun Islam – ditunaikan. Juga dengan usaha ini diharapkan orang ramai sentiasa prihatin kepada golongan kurang beruntung, bukan

sahaja pada waktu berbuka puasa malah sebagai amalan penyucian kerohanian dalam melayari liku-liku kehidupan.

Jenama ini memanfaatkan Facebook, rangkaian media sosial yang popular ini bukan sahaja untuk membantu menyebarkan kesedaran terhadap ribuan insan miskin dan tanpa tempat berteduh yang tinggal di sekitar Kuala Lumpur sahaja, bahkan juga untuk sama-sama ‘turun padang’ menghulurkan pertolongan kepada yang memerlukan.

Dengan menukar butang “perkongsian” kepada mata wang, Knorr, dengan gandingan kerjasama Pertiwi, mengikrarkan satu hidangan makanan bagi setiap perkongsian filem iklan Ramadhan baharu terbitan mereka. Lebih banyak perkongsian bermakna lebih banyak hidangan makanan yang berkhasiat dan enak dapat diberi kepada golongan susah.

Menurut seorang wakil Unilever, “Knorr mempunyai pernyataan misi untuk membekalkan makanan yang sedap dan berzat untuk seluruh warga Malaysia. Selaras dengan janji ini, kami meletakkan sasaran untuk mengagihagihkan makanan yang sedap dan berzat kepada sekurang-kurangnya 1,000 orang warga kota yang tinggal di lorong-lorong Kuala Lumpur dan bahagian tengah bandar.”

Kempen “Janji Ramadhan” Knorr dipaparkan dalam sebuah video yang menceritakan perihal seorang bapa berjanji akan pulang untuk bersama anak lelakinya yang berbuka puasa kali pertama. Waktu berbuka puasa lazimnya dihargai sebagai waktu tak ternilai untuk merapatkan hubungan sesama ahliahli keluarga dan juga untuk meraikan tamatnya sehari suntuk berpuasa, inilah juga masanya keluarga berkumpul untuk merasai nikmat hidangan makanan dan berkongsi limpahan juadah daripada bulan suci ini.

“Sesuai dengan semangat Ramadhan, pihak kami menggalakkan rakyat Malaysia untuk ‘beramal’ dengan cara berkongsi ‘berkat’ dengan mereka yang kurang beruntung. Cuma klik untuk memberi satu hidangan makanan bagi seorang insan. Lebih banyak perkongsian yang kami terima, lebih ramailah insan yang dapat kami agihkan makanan,’ wakil Unilever menambah kata.

Untuk memudahkan pengagihan makanan, Knorr bekerjasama dengan Pertiwi, sebuah NGO yang memberi perkhidmatan kemanusiaan berupa bantuan makanan kepada golongan tanpa rumah dan komuniti dhaif yang menghuni bahagian tengah bandar. Pertubuhan ini dari semasa ke semasa mengagihkan makanan siap bungkus serta air minuman bersih kepada pelbagai kelompok penerima dalam Lembah Klang.

Dengan pimpinan dan panduan pihak Pertiwi, Knorr bersama-sama warga kerja kanan Unilever Malaysia akan mengotakan janji dan berkongsi limpahan rahmat Ramadhan pada 31 Mei, 7 Jun, 14 Jun dan 19 Jun.

Preschoolers will set off on thrilling adventures in a kingdom far away where there lives a… Princess Knight! Nickelodeon’s brand-new animated preschool series, Nella the Princess Knight, follows Nella, an unconventional 8-year-old who possesses the royal qualities of a princess, like compassion and grace, while also embodying the courage and determination of a brave knight. Whenever a problem arises, Nella embarks on daring quests to save her kingdom through her unique ability to transform from a princess into Nella the Princess Knight. Nella the Princess Knight (40 half-hour episodes) features a social-emotional curriculum promoting self-confidence, inclusiveness and compassion for others. The series will premiere on the Nickelodeon channel on Monday, 29 May at

10am (MY), 9am (WIB) and 11.30am (PH); and on the Nick Jr. channel on Monday, 26 June at 9am (MY/WIB/PH).

Viewers can start visiting Nella the Princess Knight page on nickjr.tv to learn more about the show andits characters, and get a first look at the series.

Nella is a confident princess who likes dancing at extravagant balls just as much as she likes meeting firebreathingdragons. She transcends traditional roles and expectations through her ability to change into Nella the Princess Knight, protecting her kingdom with the help of her friends: Trinket, Nella’s glamorous unicorn and best friend; Sir Garrett, a loyal and adventurous knight; and Clod, Garrett’s trusty steed. 

In the series premiere, “Sir Clod/Up All Knight,” Clod loses his invitation to the Royal Cafe Breakfast Buffet and must find it by lunchtime or everyone misses out. Under Nella’s leadership, they braveGotcha Falls, dodge through a field of poppleberries and traverse the bubbly Sudsycano in order to find it. Also in the episode, a luminous phoenix shines brightly across the kingdom causing Blaine and the rest of Castlehaven to lose sleep. After the phoenix is locked up in the knight brigade tower, Nella must use her knightly skills to free the bird and convince everyone to come together as a group to solve their problem.

Robert Vargas (head writer, Zack and Quack) serves as an executive producer on Nella the Princess

Knight and the series is created by Christine Ricci (curriculum advisor, Blaze and the Monster Machines, Dora the Explorer). It is the newest show to join Nick’s top-ranked preschool roster, airing alongside hit series like PAW Patrol, Blaze and the Monster Machines and Shimmer and Shine. 

Salam Ramadan dan Selamat Berpuasa buat umat muslimin dan muslimat semua. Especially buat kawan² di alam maya ini. Alhamdulillah... kerana dengan keizinanNya, kita diberi kesempatan bertemu semula dengan bulan Ramadan Al-Mubarak pada tahun ni. 

Semoga kita dapat menghayati dan manfaatkan kehadiran bulan yang penuh barakah ini dengan sebaik mungkin. Smoga ibadah kita dapat digandakan bukan hanya pada bulan ramadan sahaja. Tapi pada bulan² yg seterusnya dan berterusan. Mungkin bulan puasa ni jugak entry pon kurang. 

Dikesempatan ini, saya ingin memohon kemaafan kalau ada kesalahan bahasa dan keterlanjuran kata. Atas segala kelemahan, kekurangan dan kekhilafan sepanjang saya menulis dan sepanjang perkenalan kita dialam nyata mahu pon maya ini.

'MARHABAN YAA RAMADHAN'

Note: Bulan puasa balik pukul 4.30 pm ☺
