RM100 Madani e-wallet top-up redeemable from Dec 4

An RM100 e-wallet top-up under the eMadani programme for adults earning less than RM100,000 per year can be redeemed starting next Monday (Dec 4).

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said this would benefit 10 million adults and involve a cost of RM1 billion.

The redemption period is until Feb 20, 2024.

Four e-wallet providers will be involved in the programme.

In a statement later, the Finance Ministry said that the four e-wallets eligible are Maybank's MAE, Petronas' Setel, ShopeePay, and Touch 'n Go eWallet.

The prime minister made the announcement while tabling Budget 2024 for a second reading in the Senate today.

Electric motorcycle rebate

Meanwhile, applications for rebates of up to RM2,400 to purchase electric motorcycles will also be open in December.

This is for those earning less than RM120,000 per year and is part of the government's efforts to encourage motorists to transition away from fossil fuels.

The Dewan Rakyat passed Budget 2024 on Monday with a voice vote.

The Dewan Negara will now debate the budget and it is expected to pass through easily.
