PASIR PUTEH, June 22 (Bernama) -- The federal government has approved a RM30 million allocation for over 13,000 people in Kelantan in need of various forms of assistance under this year's welfare programme. Kelantan Social Welfare Deputy Director Che Ngah Ismail said the amount was bigger than the RM7 million approved by the state government, most of which was for management expenses.

"The welfare programme involves various programmes including for the disabled and chronic patients," he told reporters after closing the Kampung Jeram-Gaal Rehabilitation-Within-the-Community family day at Tok Bali here yesterday.

Che Ngah said that last year, the federal allocation was RM24 million and the icrease was to implement a new programme for chronic patients who needed family attention at all times.

He said people earning less than RM700 were eligible for the RM300 monthly aid to alleviate their family burden and they could apply for it at social welfare offices in their areas from now.

He also said he expected the number of people needing aid to increase by 10 percent. "All applications will be studied in details to ensure that only those who qualify receive aid," he said.

1. Govt Approves RM30 Million For Over 13,000 Needy Kelantanese

2. He said people earning less than RM700 were eligible for the RM300 monthly aid to alleviate their f3,000x12monthsamily burden

13,000xRM300x12 months=RM 46,800,000 i.e. RM46.8 million. so never trust govt's news of million & billion of fanstatic figure. they are all half past six including BERNAMA reporters. see we just do a simple calculation we already know they are just bushiting. shhhh this is BN govt. and BN reporters, how can we get TRUTH NEWS.????

The UMNO/BN government is playing games and wants to provoke the Rakyat. It's just sweet talk. Where are they going to find RM30 million from and simply hand it out to the opposition. Tell it to the marines. It's like saying there are goodies coming your way but after that everything is forgotten and somehow the fund will be channelled somewhere. So easy for them to say everytime the government has approved RM?????? for a supposedly welfare fund or a high sounding project. They are immuned to doing all this for the last 50 years. The government thinks the Rakyat is naive. This is daylight ROBBERY!!!

TaiLow, I second your motion of perpetual-buggery with an added Lingam's triple-factor as their bonuses.

that is quite a hefty sum
a space tourist program money can help tens of thousands of people a year
badawi's new boeing's money can help so much more.
