Chairman of KLSCAH Youth Siah Kwong Liang says underwhelming response for the airfare subsidies offered could be due to a lack of interest from voters to return to Sarawak to cast their votes. – The Malaysian Insight file pic, December 16, 2021.

THE Kuala Lumpur and Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall (KLSCAH) Youth’s initiative to provide airfare subsidy to individuals returning to Sarawak to vote this weekend has been met with lukewarm reception.

Polling is this Saturday but to date, only 73 people have applied for the subsidy since it was launched on December 1, Siah Kwong Liang, chairman of KLSCAH Youth told The Malaysian Insight.
