Nadma never rejected, reduced BWI recipient list for flood victims


KUALA LUMPUR: The National Disaster Management Agency (Nadma) has never rejected or reduced the list of Bantuan Wang Ihsan (BWI) flood applicants certified by state and district disaster management committees.

Minister in Prime Minister's Department (Sabah, Sarawak Affairs and Special Functions) Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali (pic) said this was because Nadma did not have the authority and approach to review and filter BWI recipients who have been filtered at state and district levels.
