Grants for disabled
MORE than 7,000 disabled people are working in the private sector while 581 are with the government. Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Dr Ng Yen Yen, in a written reply to Teo Nie Ching (DAP-Serdang), said the disabled were encouraged to start businesses. She said those interested could apply for a "launching grant" of RM2,700. "The Welfare Department has given out RM42,400 in grants up to March, helping some 17 disabled people."
