QHAZANAH SABAH LENDS A HAND TO SABAH SMES

-

Housewife Radziah Matarsad is on a mission to reintroduce traditional goodies of her Sabah Brunei community that have been obscured over time such as the crescent shaped kuih kakara and kuih bakar pandan and Qhazanah Sabah Bhd (QSB) is helping her to achieve her dream.

The Sabah State Government’s investment arm, through its Kojasa Mart retail outlets, is helping the 40-year-old mother of seven to market her kuih kelupis and part of the income that is being ploughed back into research and development (R&D) of “new” products such as the kuih kakara.

“As a child, I looked forward to Hari Raya and other celebrations when my mother and aunties would make these kuih. Over the years I noticed these cakes seemed to have been forgotten as I did not see them being served during festivities,” said Radziah.

Her R&D efforts include gathering as many recipe versions of the these kuih from her elderly aunts, trying them and finding the best way to package them.
