Reviving the controversial Special Affairs Department (Jasa) will take less than the RM85.5 million it has been allocated, Communications and Multimedia Minister Saifuddin Abdullah gave his assurance today.
He also assured the people that the agency will not be headed by politicians or be used for political propaganda for the Perikatan Nasional government.
Speaking during his Budget 2021 winding-up speech this afternoon, Saifuddin said Jasa would be rebranded as “Jabatan Komunikasi Komuniti” (J-KOM) and be used for grassroots communication.
