BATU KITANG: In conjunction with the 1st of Muharram 1447H, an Early Muharram Celebration Ceremony was held at the branch level for N13 Batu Kitang, marking the beginning of the Islamic new year with spiritual reflection and meaningful contributions.
State Assemblyman for Batu Kitang, YB Dato Lo Khere Chiang, presented a total of RM57,000 in Minor Rural Project (MRP) allocations to several organisations and community committees, reinforcing his commitment to grassroots development and community empowerment.
The recipients of the MRP contributions are:
- RM33,000 – Batu Kitang Women’s Group (received by Mrs Naimah)

The event was co-organised with the Bureau of Religious Women’s Movement, Batu Kitang Branch (N13) and featured a tazkirah session that reminded attendees of the deeper meaning of Hijrah — a migration toward renewed aspirations, values, and community unity.
“These contributions are not only financial aid but also symbolic of our ongoing migration towards building a better, stronger community,” said YB Dato Lo during the event.
The ceremony also celebrated the spirit of Maal Hijrah, encouraging positive transformation, unity, and development within the Batu Kitang constituency.
