    Felcra's chief executive officer, Zulkarnain Md Eusope said the programme

monthly income of almost RM8,000," he told reporters at the 2016 PLKK FTC
graduation ceremony today.
    A total of 248 graduates received their certificates at the ceremony.
    Zulkarnain said PLKK is implemented within six months, that is three-months

identified.    
    He said, this year the government allocated RM9.4 million to FTC to finance
the PLKK programme.
