‍

KUALA LUMPUR: A total of 163 government services will be provided for visitors of the Central Zone MADANI Rakyat Programme scheduled to take place at the Kuala Selangor Sports Complex from Feb 23 to 25.

Principal Senior Assistant Secretary of the Food Industry Division of the Agriculture and Food Security Ministry (KPKM) Zurihanmi Zakariya said of the total, 121 were services offered by federal agencies under 26 ministries, while the rest would be services offered by state agencies.

"Among the services to be provided by federal agencies are counters for traffic summons discounts, and Road Transport Department counters for helmet exchange, just like the ones we had during the programme in Bukit Jalil last year.

"Also available are counters for Rahmah Aid status check and free health examination. Needless to say, whatever service you want, you'll find it there," he said when featured in Bernama TV's Apa Khabar Malaysia programme today.

He said KPKM, as the leading ministry of the programme, would also have a special pavilion to provide information and direct consultation, such as on padi technology, aquaculture and vertical farming, as well as a petting zoo for children.

"We will also have Madani Agro Sales, offering various items at least 30 per cent cheaper than market prices," he said.

Zurihanmi said the public could also obtain the latest information and explanation of government policies and aspirations during the Madani Rakyat programme in Kuala Selangor.

"My advice is to come early, find a comfortable parking space, and bring enough money because there will be many items on sale during the programme," he said.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is expected to grace the programme on Feb 25.– Bernama
