Friends Of STAR

Of the total RM490,000.00 secured by Friends Of STAR for the school, a sum of RM190,000.00 had been released to the school about two weeks ago (setengah org terkiyal-kiyal kata RM190,000 akan dapat - pasal depa blurr) and in fact, a portion of it has been used to repair the roofs of some hostels damaged by high wind recently.

RM300,000.00 is still with Friends Of STAR - and we will hand over the money to the school on the 11th of this month. Of course, we want to maximize the use of this money and will have an in-depth discussion with Haji Hashim about this.

We had initially asked for RM1.1 million from the Ministry - and RM490,000 is about half of the amount asked. But we are working hard to secure the balance either before the end of the year or by early next year.
