LABUAN: An academician has suggested the substantial savings from the discontinuation of the RM3.8bil in chicken subsidies should be strategically channelled into key initiatives for the people.
Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) senior lecturer Assoc Prof Dr Romzi Ationg said this significant windfall could be allocated to creating or enhancing cash assistance programmes, building schools and hospitals, upgrading dilapidated clinics, and supporting small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
