Exciting news! STR Phase 3 of the Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah (STR) will commence next Thursday. Find out if you are eligible for this aid and get all the details you need right here.
STR Phase 3 Commences Next Thursday
The payment for STR Phase 3 will start on August 29th, involving current recipients. New recipients and those who have appealed will start receiving their payments from September 18th. The payments will be directly credited into the registered bank accounts in the STR database. For recipients without a bank account, payments will be disbursed in cash through Bank Simpanan Nasional (BSN) in a staggered manner.
New Approach for 2024
Starting in 2024, the government will open STR registration throughout the year. This initiative aims to provide more opportunities for the public to benefit from government aid. With this approach, the number of eligible recipients is expected to increase as the process of new applications and updates will be carried out year-round instead of once a year.
If an applicant’s name is not in the STR database, they will need to apply so that the verification process according to STR eligibility categories can be finalized.
Budget Allocation for 2024
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who is also the Finance Minister, announced in the 2024 Budget that the allocation for STR has increased by RM2 billion or 25%, from RM8 billion in 2023 to RM10 billion. This increase is expected to benefit nearly 60% of Malaysia’s adult population.
Status Check and Precautionary Measures
Eligibility status for STR can be checked starting August 29th through the official STR portal. The Ministry of Finance (MOF) also advises STR recipients to be cautious of unauthorized links from irresponsible parties. As a protection measure against fraud cases, MOF does not send SMS or WhatsApp messages requesting personal information.
