33 Recipients Receive MRP Grants During Tanjong Datu Aidilfitri Open House
LUNDU: A total of 33 recipients from various community organisations received Minor Rural Project (MRP) grants amounting to RM123,000 during the Tanjong Datu State Constituency Aidilfitri Open House on Saturday.
The distribution of these funds reflects the government’s ongoing commitment to empowering development at the grassroots level.
The distribution of the Phase 1/2026 MRP grants involved various recipients comprising two Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs), 22 Village Development and Security Committees (JKKKs), seven non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and two local agencies.
The initiative is seen as a strategic effort to support the implementation of community activities, strengthen the capacity of grassroots organisations, and stimulate social development within the Tanjong Daru area.
The event, organised by Tanjong Datu Assemblyman Azizul Annuar Adenan, successfully drew a crowd of approximately 1,000 visitors from all walks of life, thereby enlivening the Aidilfitri celebrations in the district.
Also present to enliven the occasion was the Minister of Women, Family and Community Development Dato Sri Nancy Shukri who took the opportunity to mingle with guests and engage with the local community.
In addition, the hosting of the open house served not only as a platform to strengthen social ties in conjunction with Aidilfitri, but also as a medium for delivering direct assistance to the people.
The event also reflected the strong spirit of unity and togetherness among the local community, in line with the government’s aspiration to ensure that the people’s wellbeing continues to be empowered in an inclusive manner. -UKASnews
