KLANG – A sum of RM 1.8 million has been allocated by the Kota Raja Parliament to upgrade several building facilities such as schools, clinics and the Village Community Management Council (MPKK) in the area.
Malaysian Defense Minister Mohamad Sabu said the number had been distributed to 45 schools, two health clinics, five neighboring areas, five residents’ associations and five local MPKKs.
