BUTTERWORTH: The provision of additional cash assistance of RM100 to Malaysian citizens, aged 18 and above, through the Basic Rahmah Contribution (Sara) programme should not be politicised, but rather seen as a form of concern for the poor, says Datuk Seri R. Ramanan.
The Deputy Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister said downplaying the value of the RM100 assistance was like belittling the poor in this country because it had a great impact on the daily lives of the less fortunate.
