KOTA BHARU: The RM200 Aidilfitri Special Financial Assistance as part of the additional initiatives announced by the government has been described as a shot in the arm for paddy farmers in the state.
A paddy farmer Md Sadzli Md Nor, 50 from Kampung Bechah Mulong said even though the amount may be small, the money could be used to supplement expenses before the next harvest after Hari Raya Aidilfitri.
"As we are all aware, the price of raw material and cooked food are now quite expensive and this has put additional pressure on people like us to buy the items. Meanwhile, a fisherman, Nik Mohd Kamal Husin, 55, from Kampung Kedai Buloh said he hoped the aid given to fishermen could be increased from time to time in accordance with the increasingly challenging economic situation.
