PM Anwar officiates Madani Woodlands Recreational Park opening

IPOH, May 4 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim officiated the opening of the Madani Woodlands Recreational Park today.

The 1.1-hectare recreational park, completed in January, includes facilities like children’s playgrounds, multipurpose courts, and jogging tracks at nearly RM500,000.

The project also preserves existing mature trees to create a green and sustainable environment.

Meanwhile, National Landscape Department director-general Mansor Mohamad said the development of six Madani Recreational Parks in Perak is now in the acquisition stage, while six others are currently in the site selection process.

“It provides recreational facilities for all age groups, from fields and playground equipment to fitness stations.

“We hope the Madani Recreational Park concept will inspire the community to embrace a healthier lifestyle,” he told the press at the event.

Earlier, the Prime Minister witnessed the symbolic handover of a RM11 million allocation to implement projects under the Housing and Local Government Ministry in Perak this year.

The mock cheque was presented by Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming to state Housing and Local Government Committee chairman Sandrea Ng Shy Ching.
