MACHANG, Feb 4 — The Ministry of National Unity (KPN) is striving to establish a minimum of 116 Progressive Neighbourhood Watch Areas (KRT) to enhance community economies across the country starting from April.

“While there are a total of 8,438 KRTs nationwide, KPN will carefully choose 116 Progressive KRTs from each district based on their economic potential.
“This initiative, geared towards stimulating the economy, aligns with the nation’s aspiration to build a progressive society,” he told a press conference after the inauguration of the Machang District Unity Complex here today.
