LENGGONG, 30 October 2021- Perak Menteri Besar Dato' Saarani Mohamad officiated the Community Service Programme organised by the Perak Royal Malaysian Customs Department (RMCD) in collaboration with the Lenggong District Council at Dewan Merdeka, Lenggong.

“I wish to thank RMCD for the contribution given. This is a huge contribution to the people of Lenggong, especially when there are locals still having difficulty finding a source of income due to the COVID-19 outbreak," said the Menteri Besar in his speech.

There was also the handing over of food boxes by the guest of honor to the representatives of the villagers, including Kampung Temelong, Kampung Bukit Nangka and Kampung Lenggong as symbolic of the launch.

 Director General of Malaysian Customs Dato' Sri Abdul Latif Abdul Kadir hoped that the contributions will help ease the burden besides strengthening the relationship between RMCD and the locals.
