In the 2013 Budget presentation last September, the government announced BR1M 2.0 would be extended to unmarried persons aged 21 years earning RM2,000 or less a month. They are eligible to receive RM250.
Awang Adek, who is also Kelantan Umno Liaison Committee deputy chairperson, also said 30 poor residents in Bachok also had electric wiring installed in their houses under the TNB programme today.
He said the programme was a pioneer project before being extended to other districts in the state.
