Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said the latest report submitted at a Government Transformation Programme meeting recently showed that the zero hard-core poor programme had succeeded.
Muhyiddin, who is also Pagoh MP, said things could change in instances when a man falls ill, dies or loses his job, causing the family to become poor, but the Government would continue to provide the necessary assistance.
He said Malaysia was the only country which knew how many poor people it had and who they were as the Government had lists of them in all the states.
He said when the country gained its independence in 1957, more than 60% of the seven million people were poor but today the number was about 2.8%.
