Affordable Solar Homes
The Government of Malaysia and Seagate Global are working together to reduce the cost of basic goods to the bottom 40% (B40) of wage earners. This is achieved by financing bulk purchases of basic goods, after which, governmental coops repackage and resell the goods at discounted prices. The B40 have trouble purchasing the essentials on a monthly basis. Some essentials included: rice, sugar, cooking oil, soap and canned foods.
