JOHOR-based non-governmental organisations (NGOs) are appealing for higher financial allocations under the 2023 state budget.

Johor Baru Handicapped and Mentally Disabled Children’s Association president S. Murugaiyah hoped that the state government would consider increasing the amount disbursed from RM60,000 to RM100,000.
