KUALA LUMPUR, June 14 — Money from Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim’s record-breaking RM1.75 million winning bid for the special edition “FFF 1” number plate will be funnelled into several Transport Ministry public initiatives for university students and the low-income group.

Transport Minister Anthony Loke promised that the federal government will use the funds for the public good, just as the King desires.

“The funds will be allocated for several initiatives under the Ministry of Transport such as airfare assistance for students (FlySiswa) between the peninsula and Sabah, Sarawak, Mylesen programme for B40 group as well as the exchange of new helmets for motorcyclists,” Loke said in his Facebook post linked to Sultan Ibrahim’s own Facebook announcement earlier this morning.

The minister expressed his gratitude to the King for his contribution and care for Malaysians. - malaymail
