KUANTAN: The Pahang State Legislative Assembly heard today about joint efforts between state and federal authorities to upgrade infrastructure at private tahfiz schools. Datuk Seri Syed Ibrahim Syed Ahmad revealed the federal government disbursed RM3.5 million last year to 31 institutions for facility improvements.

Official records show 136 private tahfiz schools currently operate with valid registration across Pahang. Another 56 institutions await approval from the Pahang Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Council for operational clearance.

Annual operational funding for these institutions totals RM7.4 million from state coffers. Financial aid includes RM250 per student for B40 families, amounting to RM2.52 million in targeted assistance. - Bernama
