Benefits For Rakyat From UMNO General Assembly 2012

A lot of matters were debated during UMNO General Assembly 2012 and various proposals are brought up for the consideration from the party's top leadership. Usually, a few of the motions or proposals debated will be applied in the Central Government in the near future or a while after further studies are made. Despite that, all of these benefits from the assembly are diverted from the public eye as most of the focus often goes to political issues. For that, we should go into the benefits which rakyat will get, an outcome from the assembly which was held a few days ago.
1. The loan limit of Amanah Ikhtiar Malaysia (AIM) is raised from RM50,000.00 to RM100,000.00 to acknowledge women in the business arena.
2. Few from 240,000 Malaysians who are declared bankrupt will get a second chance when the government agrees to re-evaluate the Bankruptcy Act 1967.
3. Brigade Orang Kurang Upaya (OKU) will be established to help the group in fighting for their welfare in issues such as housing, jobs and trainings.
4. Motion to establish Yayasan Tanah Wakaf 1Malaysia to standardize wakaf land administration all over the country.

14. Announcement on a mission to be sent to Gaza through Kelab Putera 1Malaysia (KP1M) which begins in December 5, 2012. At the same time, the assembly manages to raise RM44,270.80 for the Tabung Gaza.
15. Establishing UMNO institution to strengthen the understanding of the party's history.
16. Proposal to establish Franchise Club in Universities to help develop more entrepreneurs. There were a lot of motions that were brought out during the assembly, and those motions showed how UMNO really care about rakyat. It clearly shows how different it is to be compared to the opposition where they only focus on political issues without even thinking of rakyat's issues which clearly needs close attention.
