PEKAN: Initiatives listed under the East Coast Economic Region (Ecer) masterplan are set to move ahead with the Pekan Agropolitan Project in Kampung Runchang set for launch near here next Tuesday.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Abdul Razak, who is also Pekan MP, is expected to launch the much-anticipated project.
Involving 1,450 families, the project will employ a comprehensive regional development approach by resettling 700 hardcore poor families to new areas in Tanjung Batu, Bebar and Kubang Panjang and engaging 750 orang asli families in an in-situ approach.
