The children were from the Pertubuhan Baitul Aini Anak-Anak Yatim dan Miskin Ipoh, Perak and the Pertubuhan Pusat Jagaan Anak-Anak Yatim Al Yassin.

Greeting them was Ipoh Mayor Dato Rumaizi Baharin and his team.

Also present was Dato’ Mazlan bin Abdul Rahman, Abu Bakar Hussian, Mahader Ahmad Mohammad Ayob, Rosli Mansor, president of Perak media sports and recreation club and from Shah Effendy Rosman, manager of Econsave Ampang Baru along with Datin Noraini Abdullah, chairman of Pertubuhan Baitul Aini Anak-Anak Yatim dan Miskin Ipoh and Norizan Razali, principal of Pertubuhan Pusat Jagaan Anak-Anak Yatim Al Yassin.
