Accepted Answer

Fifty Thousand Selangor Families Eligible for Kita Selangor Voucher

A total of 50,000 families in Selangor are eligible to apply for the 'Kita Selangor Voucher' initiative. This programme will provide RM100 per month for a duration of six months, with a total allocation of RM30 million. Applications for this assistance must be submitted entirely online.
Eligibility Criteria and Application Process

The initiative specifically targets single mothers with a household income not exceeding RM5,000 to apply for this aid. The selection of eligible families is based on data of applicants who have not received any existing government assistance, including programmes like the Bantuan Kehidupan Sejahtera Selangor (BINGKAS). This data is cross-referenced with information from government agency databases.
Disbursement and Monitoring of Funds

Once approved, the financial assistance will be disbursed directly into the e-wallet accounts of the eligible recipients. This direct disbursement method is designed to minimise the risk of fund leakage and allows the state government to monitor the usage patterns of the aid. This mirrors the tracking mechanisms previously employed in the BINGKAS programme.
Ongoing Poverty Alleviation Efforts

In parallel, the Selangor state government will continue its BINGKAS programme, which provides RM300 per month to 30,000 families specifically to address hardcore poverty. An allocation of RM138 million has been earmarked for this programme, demonstrating a broader commitment to tackling the rising cost of living.
