Cukai perkhidmatan jagaan warga emas turun kepada 6%
Pengecualian penuh turut diberikan bagi yuran jagaan sehingga RM96,000 setahun, kata PM.
Malaysian government plans to reduce the care service charge for elderly citizens from 8% to 6% starting January next year, according to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. The initiative is part of broader preparations to handle the status of an aging nation, including reinforcing the comprehensive care ecosystem for seniors. The government will allocate more than RM40 million through the HRD Corporation to train 8,000 workforce in the elderly care sector, creating job opportunities in the field.
Two Specialized Elder Care Institutions (NICE) will also be built in Penang and Sarawak for training, research, and senior care. Income limits for qualifying for the senior care allowance will be raised from RM1,700 to RM2,000 per month.
