As my legal firm had contributed a bit to National Cancer Society of Malaysia ("NCSM") when they were having their Relay for Life this year, we are getting updates from them in their effort in educating and fighting the good fight against cancer. Although none of my family or close friends or our employees ever had any close brush with cancer yet, may Allah protect us from it, as you know, due to the nature of cancer being your own cell being 'bad'.
