  "account": "On November 8, the Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Ministry announced a RM600,000 allocation to upgrade basic infrastructure and youth technical skills in Kampung Murni A through the 2026 Madani Adopted Village initiative. Minister Arthur Joseph Kurup highlighted the federal government's commitment to inclusive national development, emphasizing the importance of not leaving rural and remote communities behind. The Madani Government introduced the initiative based on a principle of direct, tangible, and immediate improvements to basic amenities and living standards in villages.\n\nThe funds were used to rebuild a community hall and upgrade a futsal court, with the multi-purpose hall facilitating community gatherings and activities, and the futsal court promoting an active lifestyle and developing young local sporting talent. An additional RM100,000 was set aside for a Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) on-the-job training program in collaboration with Keningau GIATMARA, enabling youths to develop technical skills and installing 25 solar streetlights around the village. These solar lights improve visibility and safety for women and children at night, reduce electricity costs, and support the ministry's sustainability agenda. Participants were awarded technical skills certificates in solar renewable energy, providing career opportunities in the field. Arthur urged villagers to maintain the new facilities as shared assets, promoting unity and community cooperation. He reiterated the NRES's commitment to serving rural communities in Sabah.",
