PETALING JAYA: Farming stakeholders in the country have welcomed the government’s idea to develop an urban farm and improve living conditions of the homeless in the city centre, but say the plan must be strategically implemented.
Federal Territories Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa had on Monday mooted the plan to offer employment opportunities to the homeless so that they can generate income.
The project is to be carried out at Jalan C.Y. Choy in Kuala Lumpur, near a transit centre for the homeless.
