Ab Rauf: Melaka never neglects welfare of Indian, Chinese communities
MASJID TANAH: Melaka has provided more than RM3 million in assistance to the Indian and Chinese communities through various initiatives over the past three years, demonstrating the state government's continued commitment to looking after the welfare of people regardless of race.
Melaka's government has consistently demonstrated its dedication to the welfare of the Indian and Chinese communities in the state, as revealed by its allocation of over RM3 million in assistance over the past three years. Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh emphasized that the government has never neglected any community, providing aid throughout the year, not just during elections.
This year, Deepavali celebrations, which fall during election season, have coincided with the state's ongoing support for the Indian community. Rauf clarified that the assistance to the Indian community began long before the election and did not commence solely due to the political calendar. In Masjid Tanah parliamentary constituency alone, the MeSRA Am (Melaka Sayang Rakyat) assistance scheme has benefited more than 400 recipients, with total allocations totaling RM4.3 million.
Rauf stressed that every contribution, regardless of its size, is significant and contributes to the future of Melaka's younger generation.
