KUALA LUMPUR – Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Bhd (Bank Rakyat) has set aside RM500,000 in special assistance for flood victims in the country.
Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister Datuk Seri Wan Junaidi Jaafar said the special assistance, in the form of basic necessities and medicine, will be distributed to victims in affected areas, including Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Perak, Selangor and Johor.
In a statement today, he said it is evident that Bank Rakyat, which is an agency under the ministry, is committed in its effort to ensure that the community, especially the underprivileged and B40 groups, will benefit from the returns earned by the bank every year.
“Hopefully, through this assistance, the over 20,000 flood victims from more than 6,000 families in affected areas can go on with their daily activities as usual,” he said. – Bernama, January 6, 2021
