KOTA TINGGI, June 2 (Bernama) -- The Ministry of Finance has approved an allocation of RM500,000 for the implementation of the Kampung Angkat MADANI Programme by the Legal Affairs Division (BHEUU) of the Prime Minister’s Department in Kampung Tanjung Serindit, Ladang Sungai Papan, here.

Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said said that various engagement sessions and site visits had been carried out to  identify the actual needs of the local community.

She said several major projects had been approved, including the installation of solar lights, upgrading of the surau and mosque, and paving works for the Orang Asli village road.

“Public toilets in the jetty area along Jalan Kampung Muhibbah will also be upgraded, with a village landmark to be constructed, the jetty landscape improved, and the Technical Education and Training (TVET) Programme implemented,” she said at the launch of the Kampung Angkat MADANI Programme in the village, here today.

Azalina said each project was planned based on the real needs of the local community, following discussions with residents and stakeholders.

Meanwhile, the Pengerang Member of Parliament said GiatMARA had been appointed as a strategic partner and technical agency for the implementation of the TVET Programme in the village, with an allocation of RM100,000.

She said the programme would focus on skills in motorboat repair and servicing as well as air-conditioning system maintenance.

“These skills are highly relevant to the needs of the local economy and have the potential to open up job opportunities and generate additional income for residents,” she said.

In this regard, Azalina expressed hope that the initiatives would enhance the quality of life, improve basic facilities and public infrastructure, and strengthen human capital and community development in the village.
