The Madani Community Fund is a government initiative designed to boost the economy in rural areas. This program is unique because it allows local communities to decide and manage their economic projects. Their goal is to empower these communities by providing them with financial support to start and run various economic activities.
For the year 2024, the Malaysian government has allocated a substantial sum of RM1 billion to this fund. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who also oversees the Ministry of Finance, has mentioned the possibility of increasing this funding to RM2 billion in the future, specifically in the 2025 budget, if the program proves successful.
The fund encourages a variety of economic projects. These include agricultural activities like vegetable farming, handicrafts, hydroponics, and other community-driven projects. The idea is to enable these communities to explore various ventures that can help generate income and sustain their economies.
Each village, longhouse, and People’s Housing Project is eligible for a grant ranging from RM50,000 to RM100,000. The local leaders, such as the village headmen, will receive these funds after deciding on a suitable economic project for their community.
The Prime Minister has assured that rural communities can seek assistance from various government agencies. This includes the Department of Agriculture and the Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA). These agencies can provide guidance and support to ensure the successful implementation of these projects.
The government is considering this. If the program shows positive results, the funding might be increased to RM2 billion in the 2025 budget. This increase will further support the development of community economic activities in rural areas.
This initiative is a part of the Malaysian government’s effort to encourage economic growth and self-sufficiency in rural areas. It’s a move to empower communities to take charge of their economic future, promoting sustainability and innovation.
