GEORGE TOWN, April 19 — The monthly cash aid for trishaw peddlers will remain at RM200 each, Penang state executive councillor for tourism and creative economy Yeoh Soon Hin confirmed today.
The group accused the state of sidelining the trishaw peddlers when the monthly cash aid was delayed for two months. He said the monthly cash aid was increased to RM200 per month middle of last year and continued to be banked in directly to the trishaw peddlers.He added that the cash aid will continue until the state decides otherwise.Earlier, Yeoh said PETACE has launched many aid packages for the trishaw peddlers in Penang.“It is heartening to see the private sector such as M Summit 191 joining hands with us in helping to look into the plight of these trishaw peddlers, especially the elderly ones,” he said.
