The courageous frontliners who gave their best to protect and keep Malaysians safe over the past two years in the fight against Covid-19 are not forgotten as the country moves into the endemic phase and recover.
A select few lucky frontliners were given the opportunity to take a break from their hectic schedules to enjoy a special reward courtesy of Domino’s Pizza and Sime Darby Motors.
As part of the collaboration between Domino’s Pizza and Sime Darby Motors for the Love Our Frontliners movement, the reward presented frontliners with exclusive rides in Sime Darby Motors’ luxury vehicles together with a pizza treat by Domino’s Pizza with the aim to spread positive vibes and happiness to these frontliners and their families. The special treat included an all-expense paid grocery trip by Domino’s Pizza.
A medical frontliner, Yusrizal Syamsir Alam who works at the Emergency and Trauma Department (ETD) of a public health facility that carries out management of suspected Covid-19 patients, deserves a treat from Domino’s Pizza and Sime Darby Motors.
“I live with my wife and children. After I get back home from work, I would quickly rush to shower as I’m worried I’d transmit the disease to my family. Beyond the stress at work, the fact that I’m unable to spend quality time with my children is devastating.
“I feel content today as it was a day for me to take a break from the norm and spend a day with my children and wife especially with the pizza treat at the store and the car ride around town. I have not driven a Hyundai Santa Fe before so I was afraid at the beginning but I am surprised that I got used to it real quick. We will all remember this special moment together,” he said.
Another medical frontliner Nur Fitri Ahmad Shah, who works as a healthcare assistant at the ETD of another public health facility shared her experience.
“I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Sime Darby Motors and Domino’s. It was indeed a fun pizza party for my children and me. We also had a good time driving around in the Volvo. I was taken by surprise by the reward as I never thought there would be such a unique opportunity like this,” she said.
Sime Darby Motors’ representative dropped off its specially commissioned vehicles at the frontliners’ doorstep, providing them the opportunity to make use of the vehicle for their personal errands for half a day.
On the same day, frontliners and their families were treated to a fulfilling pizza meal by Domino’s Pizza.
With the aim to reunite and create a memorable experience for the frontliners, Domino’s Pizza delivered fresh and hot pizzas to their loved ones whom they have not seen for a long period of time while they connected with each other via video calls. The frontliners also shared their respective experiences working during the pandemic.
The free rides and pizzas are part of a rewards programme through the Love Our Frontliners movement to express appreciation and support to medical frontline heroes for their sacrifice and contribution to ensure the well-being of Malaysians during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The initiative also entailed the contribution of 4,200 pizzas, prepared by Domino’s Pizza and delivered by Sime Darby Motors’ stable of brands to Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS) quarantine and treatment centre and several Covid-19-designated hospitals within the Klang Valley.
