A fully integrated model farm
Padang Rumbia is a unique project which is undertaken by IRIS Corporation Bhd in response to the aspiration of the Malaysian Government to uplift the standard of living of the poorer communities in Malaysia - the kampong (villagers). The visit by the PM to the farm coincided with the official handing over of the houses to 50 families of the kampong and the farm is aimed at generating the much needed economic activities for the area.
