00:00The federal government has approved RM200,000 in funding for Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Perempuan Pudu

00:08after the school's building project remained stalled for years.

00:13The Prime Minister's political secretary, Chan Mingkai, said such institutions cannot be left alone to struggle

00:18when public fundraising efforts fall short.

00:21Chan said many partially supported schools were required to be self-sustaining

00:25and often had to initiate their own donation drives to cover infrastructure costs

00:31as government assistance typically extended only to maintenance.

00:35So this type of school, they need to self-sustain collecting donations to build their own infrastructure.

00:45Government only taking care of the maintenance year rights.

00:49But sometimes when they need to build a new building,

00:52so the education, the department, their kind of maintenance is not enough to cover that kind of cost.

00:59So they initiate their own campaign for donation.

01:02But when we saw they need some of the top-up, since they were rejected for years,

01:07they still can't be able to collect enough money for that.

01:11So I think it's time for us to give a bit more, a little bit more donations

01:16so that they can finish their project.

01:17So as Madani government, for us, even though this is an SPK school,

01:23it's still an education centre for around this area.

01:27So I think it's our responsibility to help to make sure they're delivered.

01:31So after we receive their application and we approve 200,000 for this donation campaign

01:37so that they have enough funds to finish this new building.

01:41The 200,000 ringgit allocation will support the school's donation campaign

01:47to complete a new building that has been delayed since 2019.

01:52The school, established more than a century ago,

01:55had struggled to meet rising construction costs.

01:58The project, initially estimated at 3.2 million ringgit before the COVID-19 pandemic,

02:04now requires 4.5 million ringgit following cost escalations.

02:11So that has been great.

02:16I think that is where it is.

02:19For you to be able to see the의 built proto-19 safety Давайте,

02:20is going to be able to work on more than 5.7 million INScenes 산 sites like these.

02:22And going into a site of the Invquote Center,

02:23speed up a 20-9 million fever,

02:25go to do job Authority of invest in installments.

02:27The work thatcompense doesn't need to be able

02:28to mają in need for this community to make sure dibujes and Laravel don't throne,

02:30go to another university right?

02:31So aside from here I think wekt that the new building is the key space

02:34that we are able to do now work on in the building.

02:36MARIANKA

02:37I think that even though the Each student is notенное in total

02:39but the best product industry has смог.
