FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF THE RED CROSS AND RED CRESCENT MOVEMENT
Malaysian Red Crescent is guided by the Seven (7) Fundamental Principles of Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity and Universality. These principles were officially adopted at the 20th International Conference of the Red Cross and the Red Crescent held in Vienna in 1965 and are universally recognised and used by the components of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.
HUMANITY
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, born of a desire to bring assistance without discrimination to the wounded on the battlefield, endeavours, in its international and national capacity, to prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found. Its purpose is to protect life and health, and ensure respect for the human being. It promotes mutual understanding, friendship, cooperation and lasting peace amongst all people.
IMPARTIALITY
It makes no discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions. It endeavours to relieve the suffering of individuals, being guided solely by their needs, to give priority to the most urgent cases of distress.
NEUTRALITY
In order to continue to enjoy the confidence of all, the Movement may not take sides on hostilities or engage at any time in controversies political, racial, religious or ideological nature.
INDEPENDENCE
The Movement is independent. The National Societies, while auxiliaries in the humanitarian
services of their governments and subject to the laws of their respective countries, must always maintain their autonomy so that they may be able at all times to act in accordance with the principles of the Movement.
VOLUNTARY SERVICE
It is a voluntary relief movement not prompted in any manner by desire for gain.
UNITY
There can only be one Red Cross or Red Crescent Society in any one country. It must be open to all. It must carry out its humanitarian work throughout its territory.
UNIVERSALITY
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, in which all Societies have equal status and share responsibilities and duties in helping each other, is worldwide.
