HULU LANGAT, June 19 — Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari has today handed over information technology communication (ICT) assets for the use of two land and district offices (PTD).
The Menteri Besar gave the assets for the disaster operations control centre to Hulu Langat district officer Dr Ani Ahmad and Sepang district officer Khairi Azali Ibrahim.
The handover, which took the form of a mock check, took place at Padang Taman Kosas, Ampang, in conjunction with the Selangor Penyayang roadshow.
At the same ceremony, Amirudin also handed the main prize of a 150cc Honda ADV motorcycle to the winner of the Smart Selangor Citizen campaign.
A total of 23 state government subsidiaries took part in the roadshow, which began in the Hulu Langat district, to promote various welfare projects for the people.
The programme was made achievable by Iltizam Selangor Penyayang’s RM350 million commitment to replace the Peduli Rakyat programme, allowing more residents to benefit from the state government’s efforts.
This includes Bantuan Kehidupan Sejahtera Selangor (Bingkas), which has taken over from Kasih Ibu Smart Selangor (KISS), assisting up to 30,000 families instead of the previous 25,000.
The Selangor Saring programme, which costs RM1.5 million and serves 5,000 people, particularly those at risk, was also held during the roadshow.
The Selangor Penyayang programme is also scheduled to be held in Kuala Langat, Kuala Selangor, Petaling and Gombak.
