FINANCIAL STATEMENT

MISSION

To mobilise resources in order to provide curative, preventive, research and support services to cancer patients and families, high-risk groups and the general public, in Malaysia and the region.

OBJECTIVE

To pool and utilise all efforts, expertise and finance from all sectors of the society to fight cancer and reduce related pain, morbidity and the suffering that cancer patients undergo.

MESSAGE FROM FOUNDER & PRESIDENT

“Crazy people do crazy things and achieve crazy results”.

That is what I tell people when they do not believe that we can run a charity professionally.

I have achieved many things in life that I am very proud of; from fulfilling my dream of becoming a lawyer to having the chance of serving in the Cabinet of Malaysia. Yet, the one achievement which I will always hold so dearly to my heart is establishing MAKNA.

2019 marks MAKNA’s 25th anniversary. I have spent 25 years of my life to ensure that we will help as many cancer patients as possible to get the best treatment in the country. Success demands hard work. We need to work hard and work smart. Although I have mentioned it countless times to the point that I may even sound like an old broken record, but believe me, everything will fall into its place should we embrace this principle. MAKNA is the embodiment of endless possibilities and success that we can achieve when we give it our all.

I am now in the twilight of my years. I still feel strong physically but my memory is slowly fading. Nevertheless, deep in my heart, my love for this organisation is unshakeable. It is my wish that MAKNA will continue to be a meaningful organisation to the society. With the unwavering trust and contributions from our donors, together with the sheer dedication of our staffs at MAKNA, I believe this is possible.

My doa to all is for a world where there is no sickness. Let’s heal it together, for a better future insya-Allah.

FOREWORD BY THE GENERAL MANAGER

2019 marks the 25th anniversary of MAKNA. It seems like only yesterday that we started our operations at Insas Berhad in Jalan Sultan Ismail.

Now, we have our own office at Jalan Ampang. Praise be to Allah and to all donors who have supported our work. Together, we can move mountains. It has been a meaningful 25 years of bringing the much needed service to cancer patients in the country.

As much as it is important for us to continue to serve the underprivileged community, it is equally vital for us to promote a stable and sustainable growth in our organisation. Only by doing so, we are able to maintain longevity. Additionally, we take serious effort in protecting the trust of our stakeholders and beneficiaries, which is why we seek to publish our annual reports as a method of practicing transparency and accountability.

We are proud to share that in 2019:

• We successfully provided financial support to 5,320 cancer patients comprised of 4,994 adults and 326 children through our Bursary Programme.

• Our Home Visit team met with 3,277 patients in 14 states across the country.

• Our Digital Mobile Mammogram Unit travelled nationwide, performing 3,704 mammogram screenings including 2,442 clinical breast examinations.

I encourage you to find out more regarding the achievements of our various programs and services in 2019 in the following pages.

In addition, digitalisation is an area which we look to capitalise on. It shall allow for the mobilisation of people towards our purpose. As a social enterprise, improvement in the digital aspect is a must. This is due to the fact that it will also improve productivity and efficiency of the organisation which will ultimately translate into a lower operational cost.

We remain optimistic for a bright outlook in 2020. By utilizing digital technology as mentioned earlier, we believe it is possible. Our Digital Mobile Mammogram Unit will be expanding its services to East Malaysia to provide free screening especially in the rural areas. Plus, a new halfway house located in Putrajaya is set to be launched to accommodate patients receiving treatment at the National Cancer Institute.

By running and staying relevant for 25 years, MAKNA has stood the test of time. It indicates the fruitfulness of our organisation and that we are on the right track in our journey of helping cancer patients in Malaysia. With your endless support, we will continue to march onwards.

A final note of thanks to the Board of Trustees, Executive Committee and staffs of the large MAKNA family. Each and everyone’s effort is instrumental in the good results of 2019. Thank you.

BURSARY PROGRAMME (FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE)

Under the Bursary Programme, cancer patients in the lower income groups who are undergoing treatment at government hospitals can apply to MAKNA for financial aid via the hospitals’ Medical Social Work (MSW) Department. Financial aid is provided for purchasing necessities that are recommended by their doctor which include non-formulary drugs, surgical equipment, prostheses, medical appliances and also monthly financial assistance for those who need it.

Cancer patient has to be undergoing or seeking treatment at any government hospitals.

The Medical Officer will refer financially-challenged patients to the MSW Department for assistance.

MSW officers will then refer eligible cancer patients’ application to MAKNA through online MAKNA Bursary Online System-(MBOS).

Received application via MBOS will be verified by MAKNA Officer.

Application will be processed within 14 working days upon management’s approval.

The status of the approval then can be accessed via MBOS by MSW officers for further action.

HOME VISIT

To ensure that donations are channeled to the rightful recipients, all patients assisted under the Bursary Programme are visited by our Home Visit Team. In addition, they are able to establish rapport with patients and better understand their conditions as well as socio-economic background. The team plays an essential role in providing emotional support and encouragement for patients to continue with their treatment or check-ups.

Year 2019

VOLUNTEERS

Our volunteers are the key driving force which help us cast a wider net and extend support to a larger group of cancer patients as they undergo treatment; encompassing communities from all parts of the country. Some of the volunteers are cancer survivors themselves and this allows them to help other cancer patients by sharing their own experiences and struggles surviving cancer.

STATEMENT BY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEMBERS

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements of Majlis Kanser Nasional (the “Society”) give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Society as at 31 December 2019, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the financial year then ended in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 2 to the financial statements.

What we have audited

We have audited the financial statements of the Society, which comprise the statement of assets, liabilities and fund as at 31 December 2019, and the statement of income and expenditure, statement of changes in accumulated fund and cash flow statement for the financial year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages 28 to 41.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements” section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence and other ethical responsibilities

We are independent of the Society in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct and Practice) of the Malaysia Institute of Accountants (“By-Laws) and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the By-Laws and the IESBA Code.

Responsibilities of the Executive Committee Members for the financial statements

The Executive Committee Members (“the Committee”) if the Society is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements of the Society that give a true and fair view in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 2 to the financial statements. The Committee is also responsible for such internal control as the Committee determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements of the Society that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements of the Society, the Committee is responsible for assessing the Society’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Committee either intends to liquidate the Society or to cease operations or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Society as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is high level of assurance, but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

(a) Identify and asses the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Society, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

(b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Society’s internal control

(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Committee.

(d) Conclude on the appropriateness of the Committee’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Society’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements of the Society or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Society to cease to continue as a going concern.

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

(e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements of the Society, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with the Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

OTHER MATTERS

This report is made solely to the members of the Society and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility to any other person for the content of this report.
