The AKM Tour started in Johor on March 3 and has been held in Perlis, Sabah, Terengganu, Perak, Kelantan, Sarawak, Selangor, Kedah, Negeri Sembilan and Melaka.
The AKM tour facilitates the people to get direct information on the assistance and plans offered by the government.
The programme also spreads the manifestation and implementation of the government’s continuous efforts to help ease the burden of the people by going to the ground throughout the country.
Cheap sales involving small traders in conjunction with the AKM Tour have always been well-received in all states. The programme also included small and medium entrepreneurs (SMEs) allowed to sell their goods, Bernama reported.
Ismail Sabri, who introduced the concept of Keluarga Malaysia (Malaysian Family) after assuming the post of Prime Minister, is confident that a family that is always bound by love will boldly face any challenge.
He emphasised that by upholding the spirit of Keluarga Malaysia, the country can create political and economic stability and maintain the harmony and prosperity enjoyed by all levels of society.
“Indeed, nothing is more important than taking care of the family,” he said.
