Malaysia to revise social aid using disposable income for better targeting under the 13th Plan.
Malaysia is reviewing its social aid system, considering using disposable income instead of gross income to better target assistance, according to Deputy Economy Minister Hanifah Hajar Taib.
The shift aims to improve accuracy under the 13th Malaysia Plan, as average B40 household income rose to RM3,815 in 2024.
The government continues rolling out the Sara programme, maintains RON95 fuel subsidies, and has allocated over RM208 billion since 2023 for targeted aid.
