Development Scheme (SPKR) - the anti-poverty programme and citizen prosperity
development scheme. The objective of this programme is to reduce poverty
population to 0.5%, by increasing the share of middle-income group household and
improve their quality of life. This effort focuses on empowering them through
enhancement of education, skills, business and physical facilities. The research aims

satisfaction and quality of life. The study looks at the relationships between socioeconomic
and demographic factors of the programme participants and the changes
of their quality of life, identify the factors that influence the effectiveness of SPKR
programme on the changes of participant's quality of life, and impact of the
programme on enhancing the participant's quality of life. Data was collected through
questionnaire survey in five states in Peninsular Malaysia which reported having the
higher poverty populations. The findings indicate that more than three-quarter of the
respondents strongly agreed that their quality of life is getting better and was satisfied
with the level of income increment after the SPKR programmed. It was also found
that there was a significant relationship between the social-demographic factors and
monthly household income which include state of origin, marital status, education
level, gender and age. | en_US |
