SOOK: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor said the GRS-PH Plus government has not only planned but also implemented numerous initiatives to drive economic development and improve the people’s welfare.
He dismissed opposition claims that the government has failed to bring development, citing education aid schemes such as Budi, Bakti, Baik, GRS-Subfly, and Sentosa among 13 initiatives supporting students from B40 families.
Among other efforts, Hajiji highlighted the construction of 3,000 Rumah Mesra SMJ units across all constituencies, the new Sentuhan Kasih Rakyat (Syukur) cash aid programme, and major water, electricity, and infrastructure projects underway across the state.
