RM1.52m allocated for Kudat oil palm smallholders and infrastructure
KUDAT: The government is supporting oil palm smallholders here through RM1.52 million in allocations. Deputy Plantation and Commodities Minister Datuk Chan Foong Hin said RM795,780 was channelled to 10 smallholders under the Smallholder Oil Palm Replanting Financing Incentive Scheme (TSPKS 2.0). He said it is to support the replanting of old oil palm trees, covering 44.21ha. Another RM725,000 was allocated for the construction of two Smallholders' Plantation Access Roads (JLPK), covering a total of 2.3km, aimed at linking community settlements with independent oil palm plantations in Kudat. The road projects involved are in Kampung Rasak Darat Tigaman (RM225,000) and Kampung Suang Pai (RM500,000). These roads are prioritised for areas with active or newly developed plantations to improve transportation of agricultural inputs and harvested crops, ensuring better access to main roads and sales centres. "From a logistical infrastructure standpoint, the government, through MPOB (Malaysian Palm Oil Board), has also implemented assistance under the Smallholders' Plantation Access Road project. Priority is given to roads that connect actively cultivated or newly developed plantations managed by smallholders. "This is to ensure the establishment of improved connectivity for nearby communities, especially in transporting agricultural inputs and delivering harvested crops to main roads and sales centres," said Chan at the launch of the TSPKS 2.0 here. He also called on smallholders to update their personal information with the MPOB to ensure timely and accurate delivery of government assistance and incentives.
