SIBU (June 27): The Sibu Parliamentary Service Centre will hold the special subsidised food drive at the Medan Supermarket of Jalan Wawasan here tomorrow (June 28), running from 11.30am to 2.30pm.
According to Sibu MP Oscar Ling, his team has prepared 1,000 sets of food packages, priced as RM30 each.
'The price is a discount of 32 per cent, off the original RM46 per set.
'They (food packages) will be up for sale on a first-come, first-served basis, while stocks last,' he said in a statement, also advising the public to come to the drive at staggered time to avoid congestion.
The items per package include a 10kg of 3A Boy white rice, one pack of Lihua noodles, one pack of biscuits, and 10 eggs.
'Each household is only allowed to purchase one set.
'After registration, each person is also entitled to get a coupon that would allow them to purchase one pack of milk formula.
'For milk priced RM20 and above, there will be a RM5 rebate.'
The MP also reminded the people not to miss the special promotion and to come early for the event.
'This subsidy programme is a monthly initiative run by our service team, and it takes place at different venues across Sibu.
'The Madani Government has specially designed this with a core objective of helping to reduce the people's financial burden,' he said.
