Beggar out of luck and allowance


KUALA LUMPUR: A man who is said to have earned RM500 within five hours of begging at a night market in Maran and owns a flashy vehicle has been barred from receiving a disability allowance, says Deputy Minister Datuk Seri Dr Noraini Ahmad.

She said besides discontinuing the RM450 allowance starting this month, the ministry has also issued a warning and requested the man sign a letter of undertaking as a commitment to cease begging.
