The assistance extended by the minority affairs will take the form of a 5-year cumulative loan with the physical assets created out of the assistance as a guarantee. After five years of operating of the projects, the Department will convert the loan to grant by writing-off the loan.

On the other hand, if the NGO winds up the project funded, and shifts the funds to a non-minority concentrated area, repayment of the loan will be sought. This will effectively tie the funds to minority-concentrated areas.
