“Some cooperatives did not submit full reports on their movements, including in terms of management. Efforts to help these inactive cooperatives are important because some are still in business but have not submitted a report,” he told reporters after presenting assistance to cooperatives in a ceremony held at Universiti Sains Malaysia Hospital in Kubang Kerian, here Saturday.
Also present were Medac secretary-general Datuk Suriani Ahmad, CCM chairman Datuk Nordin Salleh and Kelantan Industry, Trade, Investment and Entrepreneur Development committee chairman Datuk Hanifa Ahmad.
