"We also hope to develop them into franchise businesses," the relevant minister, Datuk Hasan Malek, told reporters after breaking fast at the Taman Desa Anggerik mosque in Juasseh near here last night.

Hasan, who is also Kuala Pilah MP, said PNS has identified five potential franchisors for the programme, while urging locksmiths, cobblers, plumbers, electricians and the like to contact PNS to join the scheme.

Of the government's RM8 million micro franchise fund for businesses under RM50,000, PNS has disbursed RM5.7 million for 213 franchisees, mainly in the retail, services, food and beverage, and education sectors, he added.
