A group of NGOs have come together to help feed less fortunate university students who are in need of food assistance.

Dubbed Gabungan Kami Sayang Mahasiswa (Kasih), the group said it plans to give out regular food assistance to students at several public universities in the Klang Valley.

"We are only a support group to help relieve some of the burdens faced by students.

"But the government should be more responsible in resolving this issue with more allocation for varsity students," Kasih chairperson Mariam Abdul Rashid told a press conference in Shah Alam today.
