When the pandemic hit the world, many companies were forced to shut their company down or lay off some staff as they’re unable to cope with the sudden change. Malaysia’s government has then come up with multiple aiding plans to help Malaysians tide through hard times.
BKM (Bantuan Keluarga Malaysia) was set up to help Malaysians tide over hardships and phase 3 will begin its payout on September 20.
Phase 4 of BKM will commence in December but as of now, no dates have been announced. However, Malaysians can expect an announcement on the dates soon.
