2,534 B40 and hardcore poor households to benefit from house repairs

A total of 2,534 household heads from the B40 group and the hardcore poor will receive assistance for house repairs. This initiative is part of a broader allocation by the Ministry of Local Government Development (KPKT) for urban housing projects this year. The ministry has set aside RM40.26 million specifically for these repair works.
Allocation for House Repairs

The RM40.26 million designated for house repairs forms the largest portion of the total RM42.26 million allocated by KPKT for urban housing initiatives in the current year. This funding is intended to help low-income households in urban settings to mend or reconstruct homes that are dilapidated or damaged. Such damage could stem from various causes, including fires, natural disasters, or the effects of extreme poverty.
Scope of Assistance

The assistance provided through this allocation aims to address urban poverty by improving living conditions for vulnerable households. Recipients are household heads identified within the B40 income bracket and those classified as hardcore poor. The programme seeks to alleviate the financial burden on these families and enhance their overall quality of life.
Support for Perak Residents

Specifically within Perak, RM2 million of the total allocation will be distributed to 133 recipients through their respective local authorities. Each eligible household head in Perak can receive up to RM15,000 to facilitate necessary home repairs. This targeted distribution underscores the ministry's commitment to improving the socio-economic status of its citizens.
