PENAMPANG: Parents in Sabah can purchase school supplies at lower prices until Feb 16 under the 243-series Madani Rahmah Sales (PJRM) 'Back to School' 2025 programme, implemented nationwide by the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDN).

Minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said Sabah is allocated 31 series of the programme, with 24 already conducted as of Feb 8, benefiting parents regardless of their economic status.

He said the program offers discounts between 10 and 30 per cent, with 101 of the 243 series already carried out nationwide as of Feb 8.

Speaking at the event launch at ITCC Shopping Mall on Sunday, he said the initiative aims to ease parents' financial burden, with 174 supermarkets, clothing stores, and shopping centres participating from Jan 18 to Feb 16.

Armizan also distributed school supply vouchers and food baskets to 100 students and welcomed public participation, adding that more series may be introduced due to strong demand.
