Iltizam Selangor Penyayang roadshow to kickstart in Ampang tomorrow

SHAH ALAM, June 18 — The Iltizam Selangor Penyayang (ISP) carnival roadshow to promote the people’s welfare initiatives will kickstart in Taman Kosas, Ampang tomorrow (June 19).

The programme, a readjustment of the earlier Inisiatif Peduli Rakyat programme, will be officiated by Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari.

He is also scheduled to hand over the offer letters to 10 Rumah Idaman buyers, along with the entrepreneur and agriculture schemes grants.

Menteri Besar Selangor (Incorporated) or MBI said the roadshow aims to promote the state government’s welfare initiatives and will be joined by 23 other state subsidiaries.

Apart from the main events, the carnival will include a variety of activities such as aerobics, food competitions, flower arrangements, community sports, skateboarding, and e-sports.

The ISP initiative’s RM350 million allocation is aimed at replacing the Inisiatif Peduli Rakyat programme, as it will benefit a greater number of individuals.

This includes Bantuan Kehidupan Sejahtera Selangor (Bingkas) which replaces Kasih Ibu Smart Selangor (Kiss), which is expected to help 30,000 households from the initial allocation of 25,000 families.

Also included in the event is the Selangor Saring free health screening programme, with a total allocation of RM1.5 million and is expected to benefit 5,000 people especially those in risky groups.

The roadshow will be continued in Dataran Pantai Morib in Kuala Langat on June 25 before heading on to other districts.
