Windfall for fishermen with 'duit raya' from govt

TANJONG KARANG: Fishermen who have been facing uncertain income and are dependent on weather conditions for their livelihood are describing the government's initiative to offer the Special Aidilfitri Financial Assistance of RM200 as a "windfall".

Aid recipient Jamsari Ramsah, 44, said the assistance shows the concern of the government, especially the Agriculture and Food Security Ministry, for fishermen with irregular income.
