State executive councillor for women empowerment and welfare Anfaal Saari said the expansion review of the programme was following the overwhelming response received from the public.

Jelasnya setiap DUN bakal menerima 20 peruntukan dan wakil pusat khidmat masing-masing akan memilih wanita berkelayakan bagi mengisi permohonan MamaKerja menerusi aplikasi Selangkah.

The state government, Amirudin said, had established the Selangor Rice and Rice Regulatory Authority (KSPDS) to handle issues related to shortages of stock in shops and markets.

"Namun, hasrat kerajaan negeri ini merupakan pelaksanaan yang membabitkan satu dasar besar dan memerlukan sokongan kewangan daripada kerajaan Persekutuan, selain kelulusan serta kebenaran daripada pemilik tanah berkaitan," katanya.

Amid reports of delays in Selangor over the land acquisition for the project, Amirudin said the matter was under a special committee comprising state and ECRL representatives.
