KUALA LUMPUR (March 31): About 0.4% of the total special quota allocated for persons with disabilities (OKU) in the Malaysia Short-Term Employment Programme (MyStep) has been filled as of the end of February this year.

Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz said the government had announced a special quota of at least 1% job opportunities for OKU through the MyStep 2022 programme out of a total target of 600,000 job opportunities this year.

"The implementation of the special quota for the OKU depends on the number of recruitments made by ministries, agencies and government-linked companies according to their respective recruitment procedures," he said in a question and answer session at the Dewan Negara on Thursday . Tengku Zafrul said the government is calling on all parties to continue working together to provide suitable employment opportunities through the special MyStep quota for the vulnerable and disabled.
