FEMALE traders and patrons at the food stalls and sundry shops under the Air Putih constituency received a pleasant surprise when they received flowers from Air Putih assemblyman Lim Guan Eng in conjunction with International Women’s Day.
Lim, who was accompanied by a group of staff from his service centre and members from several MPKKs (Village Community Management Councils) under the constituency, distributed some 1,000 flowers during the walkabout that started as early as 8am.
According to Lim, he has been distributing flowers to women yearly to show appreciation to women for their contributions to society and also create awareness about International Women’s Day.
He also wished all women a Happy Women’s Day.
