PETALING JAYA: Seven recipients of this year’s Cleaning Workers Award will be nominated for state honours (Pingat Kebaktian) from their respective state rulers.
Seven cleaning workers from across Malaysia will be nominated for state honors this year, according to Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming. The seven recipients, representing the Federal Territories, Johor, Melaka, Negri Sembilan, Perlis, and Kedah, will receive the prestigious Pingat Kebaktian from their respective state rulers.
