SUPP Public Complaints Bureau (SUPP PCB) Chief, Wilfred Yap together with SUPP members recently went back to visit an individual residing at BDC Resettlement Scheme, Kuching to inform her that the Social Welfare Department had approved her application for financial welfare incentive allowance of RM300.00 per month. The incentive allowance for persons with disabilities(OKU) is given to encourage OKUs to sustain an income to meet their basic needs and to encourage them to be a productive member of our community.
The auntie of individual concerned had earlier in March 2017 asked for assistance from SUPP Public Complaints Bureau to assist her in applying for financial welfare assistance from the Social Welfare Department.
The individual is currently staying with her auntie. Despite being intellectually challenged, she still tries her best to be independent and earn her own living by working for her auntie in making local cakes and biscuits for sale.
SUPP PCB would like to thank officers from the Social Welfare Department for their efficient service. For the benefit of the public, the Social Welfare Department provide various kinds of financial welfare assistance to deserving members of the public and SUPP Public Complaints Bureau is always ready to lend a helping hand. Anyone requiring assistance can always call SUPP Public Complaint’s mobile number at 016-7797688 or 082-246999 or go direct to SUPP Head Office to request for assistance.
