SHAH ALAM, April 6 -- The Selangor state government will provide financial aid amounting to RM7.356 million to assist Putra Heights residents who are affected by the gas pipeline fire.

Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said this financial aid is a contribution by the state government on top of financial aid that has been allocated by Petronas Nasional Berhad and the federal government.

"The state government has agreed to provide rental assistance of RM2,000 per month for six months to each affected family to help them with house rental fees while their house is being repaired or rebuilt," Amirudin told a press conference at the Selangor State Secretary building here.
