MORE than 300,000 people from the disabled (OKU) community, as well as single mothers who are registered with the Welfare Department will receive a RM300 one-off payment to help lighten their burden during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said the aid will be channelled to eligible recipients before Hari Raya Aidiladha.

“The government is always concerned about the welfare and well-being of target groups such as the disabled community and single mothers,” he said when announcing the National Economic Recovery Plan (PENJANA) aired live over radio and television today.
