#1 Well, Malaysia has all those rubber plantations, and they needed to move the gloves. That and the airline business hasn't been working out the way they'd thought. (Gonna hafta go back to piracy in the Straits of Malacca for Xmas...)

#2 Across the news it was falsely reported as no african nation contributed, which was wrong

#3 Given that Africa is contributing the bodies and an evolving experiment in social engineering (treatment of the dead, washing hands and shoes in dilute bleach on entering and leaving buildings, frequent hand washing with soap and water or dilute bleach, no hugging when greeting, community quarantines, and closed borders among others) I'm willing to give them a pass on more material aid.
