MALAYSIA: As part of JenJOBS.com‘s (online recruitment portal) corporate social responsibility initiative, they are currently running an online fund-raising campaign for the Japan Earthquake/Tsunami disaster victims from 1-30th April 2011.

All funds will be donated to World Vision’s emergency relief effort in Japan and other affected areas. Name of the donors will be displayed on the donor’s list page.

AdSense publishers who wish to help Japan can now donate their AdSense earnings accrued through March 31, 2011 directly to the Japanese Red Cross.

Simply complete the form on AdSense Help with your payee name, email address, AdSense publisher ID and the donation amount in USD.

Please note that donation will be processed via the Tides Foundation, and 1.5% of your donation amount will be used by their administration fees.

Donate now to help Japan

YOU can help the victims of 2011 Japan Earthquake and Tsunami in two simple ways.

1. Make a donation.

The simplest and most direct way to help. Make sure you are making donation to reputable organizations. I recommend American Red Cross or Japanese Red Cross Society.

My friend, James @ FriedBeef.com is matching your donation up to USD500. Remember to email proof of donation to him!

2. Spread the word

Got a website/blog? Simply add a Hello Bar (a simple notification bar on the top of your website) to drive awareness for the Japan earthquake and promote donations.

Here is the JavaScript code you can simply copy & paste into your website to add the notification bar.

More information on applying the hellobar at Mashable.

Please share the donation pages and this article on Facebook and Twitter.

Twestival (or Twitter Festival) is a local event which is organized 100% by volunteers and 100% of ticket sales and donations go directly to projects.

ALL contributions of Twestival KL will go to Concern Worldwide, an international humanitarian organization dedicated to reducing suffering and ending extreme poverty.

Tea break with LiewCF, anyone?

As my support to Twestival KL 2010, I pledged to have an afternoon tea break with me, the Malaysian pro-blogger.

The bid winner then can have a cup of coffee/tea, chit-chat with me, and ask me almost anything, such as “how to make money from blogging?”. The bill is on me.

Shhh… I didn’t inform my girlfriend when I made the pledge. I shall write a report to explain it to her.

The bid is starting from RM100. To bid, you need to be a Twitter user. Then, tweet your bid as follow:

[017] your_bid_amount #twestklbid
“your_bid_amount” has to be more than RM100. If there is higher bid, you would be outbid.

Beside that, I also pledged “1 year web hosting account with free WordPress installation”, code: [026].
