The Peoples' Association said this is in recognition of their larger role in promoting racial harmony.
Among the key tasks now, having programmes to integrate new citizens into the community and society and helping those who need assistance as a result of the economic downturn.
Dr Yaacob Ibrahim, Minister-In-Charge of Malay/Muslim Affairs, Advisor, Malay Activity Executive Committee, said: "For me, we should be proud that the minority activists, the Indians and the Malays who have been quietly participating at the CCs, have been recognised and with this recognition. We should expect more from them so that they can work together with the other grassroots leaders to enhance the main objective of PA's mission is to enhance social cohesion."
Dr Balaji Sadasivan, Senior Minister of State, Foreign Affairs, Advisor, Indian Activity Executive Committee, said: "Every RC, NC and CC has got IAC members and they know what is happening to their neighbours, any problems, people with financial difficulties, children not doing well in school. Sinda, with contributions from the community runs tuition centres and family service centres.
“By having synergy between Narpani and Sinda, Narpani can serve as the eyes and hands of Sinda to ensure that those who need help get help. This is very important in this economic downturn." - CNA/vm
