THE Rakyat Sejahtera Housing Programme (PPRS), the new e-sports stadium, and the Multi-Lane Fast Flow (MLFF) toll road are among the key topics to be discussed in today's Dewan Rakyat sitting.

According to the Order Paper on the Parliament's website, Wan Razali Wan Nor (PN-Kuantan) will ask the Minister of Rural and Regional Development whether the ministry plans to improve the application requirements for the PPRS to better assist those in need, particularly the underprivileged, during the question-and-answer session.

In the same session, Muhammad Islahuddin Abas (PN-Mersing) will inquire about the status of the RM20 million allocation in the 2025 Budget for the development of e-sports. He will also ask if the ministry has identified potential locations for new e-sports stadiums nationwide, in collaboration with E-Sport Integrated, to foster the growth of the e-sports ecosystem and talent.

Another significant question will be raised by Datuk Seri Dr. Wee Ka Siong (BN-Ayer Hitam) to the Minister of Works regarding the government's current stance on finalising the direction of the MLFF toll payment system and the latest updates on negotiations with highway concessionaires concerning the implementation of the MLFF.

Following the question-and-answer session, the Dewan Rakyat will proceed with the winding-up of the motion of thanks for the royal address, with ministers from each ministry providing their responses.

The current Parliament meeting will continue for 18 days, concluding on March 6. - February 19, 2025
