SINGAPORE: Needy residents in the South West District received various free electrical appliances on Wednesday due to an initiative by the South West Community Development Council and appliance manufacturer Akira.
Akira has donated S$120,000 worth of appliances for 50 low-income households.
A set for each household includes a kettle, stove, rice cooker, radio and cordless phone.
Mayor of the South West District, Dr Amy Khor, was on hand to give the recipients a few tips on using the appliances.
The CDC is identifying more households in other divisions so that more families can benefit from the programme.
