Yayasan Kelab-Kelab Rotary Malaysia

The idea of a Rotary District 3300 Foundation was initiated by District Governor Dr. Philbert S. Chin of the Rotary Club of Singapore in 1983/84. It was incorporated as a company limited by share capital on 24 September 1985. When District 3300 was split by Rotary International into two districts — District 3300 and District 3310 — Rotary District 3300 Foundation was split into Rotary Foundation Singapore and Rotary Foundation Malaysia.

On 14 November 1991, Rotary Foundation Malaysia (ROTAFOM) was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee to serve all Rotary Clubs in Malaysia (including Malaysian Rotary Clubs in District 3300). The Rotary Clubs in Singapore formed the Foundation of Rotary Clubs (Singapore) Ltd. On 12 December 1997, Rotary Foundation Malaysia was renamed Yayasan Kelab-Kelab Rotary Malaysia.
