State executive councillor for trade, investment, and mobility Ng Sze Han said the high-impact project included in the First Selangor Plan (RS-1) would also stimulate the local economy by offering more job opportunities, including highly skilled jobs.

Menerusi pembentangan Belanjawan Selangor 2024, Dato’ Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari mengumumkan peruntukan RM3.2 juta bagi meneruskan saringan kesihatan percuma.

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.
