PUTRAJAYA, Sept 4 (Bernama) — The Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (SARA) Appreciation Aid programme ran smoothly on its fifth day today, recording sales of RM106.1 million involving 1.7 million recipients as of 9.30 pm.
The Finance Ministry (MOF), in a statement, said the transaction success rate remained stable at 99.5 per cent, consistent with the performance recorded yesterday.
