SHAH ALAM - Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today announced an additional allocation of RM35 million for a programme to empower communities in public housing projects (PPR) in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur.

He said the allocation is expected to benefit 50,000 PPR residents through the "Kita Untuk Kita” (K2K) programme, involving about 12 housing projects that are identified as problematic.

"We have already approved the RM35 million and it can be implemented immediately because there are houses in dire condition.

"I have also discussed with the Ministry of Local Government Development (KPKT) to speed up the process by not following the usual tender, which takes a long time, but through limited tender, he told reporters after launching the K2K Programme which was also attended by Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari and Deputy Minister of Local Government Development Akmal Nasrullah Mohd Nasir here.
