Kerajaan peruntuk RM2.5 juta sedia kemudahan dialisis di masjid Kelantan

Kerajaan Malaysia has allocated RM2.5 million to provide dialysis facilities in selected mosques across Kelantan in collaboration with Yayasan Waqaf Malaysia (YWM) and Radicare, according to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. The initiative aims to make healthcare more accessible, particularly for patients with kidney issues and those residing in rural areas who often have to travel long distances to receive treatment.

By converting mosques into healthcare centers, the government hopes to expand the functions of religious institutions and ensure the local community has access to essential healthcare services.

Anwar Ibrahim emphasized that this effort is a step towards enhancing the facilities within mosques and ensuring that the community has easy access to health care. During a Sebarkan Salam@Kota Bharu Berselawat program at the Masjid Muhammadi, Anwar was joined by the Minister of the Prime Minister's Department (Religious Affairs) Dr Zulkifli Hasan, and Nassuruddin Daud, the former Chief Minister of Kelantan.

In addition, Anwar announced that RM645,000 would be allocated through YWM for the project of installing water facilities and solar-powered equipment in selected mosques facing basic infrastructure challenges.

The prime minister highlighted that this initiative showcases the important role of wakaf institutions in strengthening public health facilities within religious spaces, further demonstrating the government's commitment to supporting initiatives that directly benefit the community. Furthermore, Anwar allocated RM500,000 for the maintenance and improvement of facilities at Sekolah Menengah Ugama Darul Ulum Al-Muhammadiyyah in Padang Kolam, underscoring the government's ongoing commitment to strengthening Islamic educational institutions while ensuring a more comfortable learning environment for students.
