'This figure excludes allocations for Islamic programmes and initiatives to strengthen Malay education and economy through agencies like MARA and KKDW,' Asyraf Wajdi stated.
Speaking at the opening of the Hulu Terengganu UMNO division delegates meeting 2025 in Jenagor, he highlighted the efforts of Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and cabinet ministers in advancing the Islamic agenda over the past 30 months.

Terengganu UMNO chairman Datuk Rozi Mamat was also present at the event. - Bernama
