A FORMER DAP leader has questioned the allocation of RM100 mil to the Malaysia Indian Community Transformation Unit (Mitra) to help hardcore poor Indian households. 'When billions are allocated for other communities, why should be Mitra be contented to receive pittance in addressing the social and economic woes of the Indian community?' asked Prof P. Ramasamy. 'This goes show the importance that the Madani government is giving to the welfare and wellbeing of the Indian community.' The former Penang deputy chief minister II was responding to the recent announcement by Mitra special committee chairman Datuk Ramanan Ramakrishnan that Mitra has fully utilised its RM100 mil allocation earmarked for various initiatives in 2023.
