MUAR – Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin today launched the Low-Carbon Community Programme in Kg Sengkang Batu 22 near Bukit Gambir.

Muhyiddin, who is also Gambir assemblyman, arrived about 9am.

He was accompanied by Johor Public Works, Transport and Infrastructure Committee chairman Mohd Solihan Badri, and Unity, Trade and Consumer Affairs Committee chairman Chong Fat Full.

Livestock breeder Norazman Alias and Sengkang Low-Carbon Community Programme chairman Raja Mohd Aidil Raja Sulaiman briefed the prime minister on compost fertiliser processing.

Muhyiddin had a go at the grinding machine used to make fertiliser from goat dung.

Raja Aidil said the programme was started in 2018.

“Initially, it was difficult to make residents understand what low-carbon activities are about, but over time, they got used to it and started practising it,” he told reporters here. – Bernama, December 13, 2020
