KUANTAN - A total of 802 household heads who along with their families were affected when floods struck Pahang recently are due to receive RM1,000 in compassionate aid, Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail said.

He said the assistance was from early allocations totalling RM1 million and channelled by the National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA) to the Pahang State Secretary’s office.

The aid will be handed over to the recipients by Feb 16, he added.

"The state government during the executive council meeting today agreed to channel the aid to the affected victims.

"I hope recipients will use it to purchase essential items to reduce their burden. I also pray we will be protected by Allah SWT from calamities and disasters,” he said in a Facebook post today.
