WOMEN entrepreneurs, who include single mothers who need retraining to hone their skills and broaden their knowledge, say the People and Economic Strategic Empowerment Programme (Pemerkasa) stimulus package will boost all who need a helping hand in their business ventures.

The Kempen e-Dagang PKS (Micro and Small Medium Enterprises e-Commerce Campaign) and Shop Malaysia Online initiative, which has a RM30mil fund, is one example.
