GOMBAK, July 31 — The Selangor Penyayang roadshow in Gombak from 8am until 6pm drew over 8,000 visitors today.
The fifth instalment of the roadshow was held at Padang Awam Batu Caves and officiated by Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari.
The programme was enlivened by various exciting activities including artists’ performances, arm wrestling competition, futsal, traditional sports, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang e-sports competition, exhibitions and the sale of food.
The visitors were also entertained by well-known singers, Shafie (Rio Band), Wom (UG14), Aan (Ways), Ejay (Samudera) and Aweera.
The initiative was made possible by an RM350 million commitment from Iltizam Selangor Penyayang (ISP) to replace the Inisiatif Peduli Rakyat (IPR) programme, allowing more residents to benefit from the state government’s initiatives.
Also included is the Selangor Saring programme, which costs RM1.5 million and serves 5,000 people, particularly those at risk.
The event was previously held at Taman Kosas Ampang Jaya, Dataran Pantai Morib Kuala Langat, Stadium Utama Kuala Selangor and Dataran Boulevard Laman MBPJ (Petaling Jaya City Council).
