IPOH, Nov 30 — The Perak government, through the state agriculture department, has allocated RM3.1 million for the “Kebun Kita” campaign as an effort to empower agricultural activities in communities.

Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad said the campaign will target 7,657 individuals and 147 communities in the state.

“Every community will involve 10 participants, with a total of 1,470 community participants. This will bring the total number of participants for the campaign to 9,127 people.

“If a household has four people this means that the programme will benefit over 36,508 people in the state,” he said after officiating an urban agriculture promotional plot near the Perak Mentri Besar’s residence here today.

He said under the campaign, individual participants are given supplies including pots, vegetable seeds such as spinach, chili, okra and kangkung, fertiliser and soil, planting equipment and manuals while community participants are supplied with a fertigation system set, fertiliser, soil, planting boxes and other gardening supplies.

Saarani said the campaign aims to encourage citizens in the state to plant vegetables and fruits in their backyard.

“With the drastic rise in vegetable prices, I do encourage Perak citizens to plant vegetables at home, if not for sale then for their own use.

“It wasn’t so hard for us to find vegetables in the past because there would be lemongrass, curry leaves available in our yards.

“So, now we have to do so again so there won’t be demand to obtain vegetables from abroad as we can supply ourselves,” he added. — Bernama

Instead of doing the job of it. ask ppl to bercucuk tanam and tuai sendiri. Lolz where to find this kind of job where i can taichi everyday

Good. It's sensible advice.

Next: ayam mahal, bela sendiri

He is not wrong but its not constructive. A lot ah pek here tanam sendiri. My grandma even have a chicken barn and a farm behind her house.

Edited : I always believe Perak can be a nice green state, if given the opportunity for proper renewable energy planning/infrastructure.

3.1mil for pots, vegetable seeds such as spinach, chili, okra and kangkung, fertiliser and soil, planting equipment and manuals while community participants are supplied with a fertigation system set, fertiliser, soil, planting boxes and other gardening supplies for 36,508 people

standard thinking level of a menteri

niama, apa pun panggil orang buat sendiri

Lembu mahal, ternak sendiri?

If vavi mahal, can people bela sendiri? Many years ago, ppl did bela vavi themselves.

Who the hell eat lemongrass and curry leaves

Many babi drivers on the road, can just sembilih on the spot.

Oh wai-

ada projek ada wang masyukkk?

That's the problem with these people.
They conveniently tell people to fend for themselves while they don't have to work hard to protect our interests. The people don't need these sorts of ministers to tell us how to live our lives. Even without telling us, already there are plenty of people doing self-gardening at home, but that won't solve the existing problem of the price increase.
WTF are you doing if you can't manage the basic problem of the people basic needs?

Piap Mahal, cari budak kahwin aje....oooo wai....

It is a sensible advise. It doesn't take a lot of space. Heck you can even do hydroponic farming on your apartment's balcony.

Takkan everything want to mock. Lain la if he ask you to rear chicken or pigs.

MB bodo what is the solution?

Pretty sure he will

sohai

MB malas buat kerja suruh rakyat sendiri kaotim
