PRIME Minister Anwar Ibrahim today announced an additional RM35 million funding for a programme to empower communities in public housing projects (PPR) across Selangor and Kuala Lumpur.

He said the funds target 50,000 PPR residents through the “Kita Untuk Kita” (K2K) programme, for 12 problematic housing projects.

“We have already approved the RM35 million and it can be implemented immediately because there are houses in dire condition.

“I have also discussed with the Ministry of Local Government Development to speed up the process by not following the usual tender, which takes a long time, but through limited tender,” he said. – Bernama, April 8, 2023.
