BN manifesto: RM1,500 education aid for children of BR1M recipients 
KUALA LUMPUR, April 7 (Bernama) -- The children of 1Malaysia People\'s Aid (BR1M) recipients will be provided with a one-off assistance of RM1,500 when they enrol in higher education institutions.
This is among the pledges contained in the Barisan Nasional (BN) manifesto unveiled by Prime Minister and BN chairman Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak at the Axiata Arena in Bukit Jalil here tonight.
In the document, themed ?With BN for A Greater Malaysia,' the coalition points out that no citizen has been neglected nor have they gone without government support on the basis of being impoverished.
"As many as seven million people have received support through BR1M although a portion of them don't live in poverty," it says.
BN also promises to further improve BR1M by making disbursement conditional on recipients' behaviour, citing as examples involvement in skills training and ensuring that their children receive immunisation.
