Pahang's Success Story: Modern Farming and Halal Industry Boom
In Kampung Piah, Kuala Krai, Kelantan, the Sejati Madani initiative has yielded impressive results. Modern farming techniques, as shown in a recent Berita RTM report, have boosted crop production and income for the local Orang Asli community. "The approach has increased harvests tenfold within 30 days," stated a local farmer. Meanwhile, Pahang's Halal industry is thriving, with a 66.8% increase in halal certification applications compared to the previous year, according to JAIP Director Datuk Zaliha Zulkepli. This growth is partly attributed to the "Halal on Track" program. The APBN awards ceremony further highlighted the positive impact of youth initiatives in Pahang, with winners receiving significant financial awards to support their community work. These successes showcase the positive development and community engagement in Pahang.
