They further explained that part of the proceeds from the NPI sale will be channelled to a foundation under the patronage of the Sultan of Selangor, which will be used for charitable activities.
Among them are scholarships and emergency funds to assist those in need, such as victims of natural disasters.
“The foundation will be chaired by the Selangor Royal Council Member, who is also the former Governor of Bank Negara, Tan Sri Muhammad Ibrahim, and will be managed subject to transparent procedures and governance,”
