Better crowd control for 2nd phase of Prihatin payment

Orderly and calm at BSN Sibu during the payment of BPN.

PHASE Two of the Bantuan Prihatin Nasional (BPN) payment at Bank Simpanan Nasional (BSN) in Sibu, Sarawak, went off without incident with most recipients pleased with the better crowd control.

This was unlike the first few days of Phase One last month when more than 500 recipients thronged the area around BSN as they were misled by fake news that the payment was only for the first three days.
