Miri Hospital's blood bank has received about 6,000 donors as of August this year and needs roughly 4,000 more to reach its target of 10,000 donors by year-end. Sarawak Transport Minister Dato Sri Lee Kim Shin said the target requires at least 1,000 donors a month and depends on continued cooperation from the community and NGOs. He spoke after attending the Malaysia Day 2026 Blood Donation Programme at Dewan Aster, Miri.
