Budget 2022 has been presented by the Ministry of Finance, Tengku Zafrul Aziz in the parliament.

One of the points that he has announced during the Budget presentation is that every B40 university student will be able to get a tablet. He has mentioned prior that university students have continued their education online during the pandemic. Those who are not as privileged do not have the gadgets needed. Hence, they needed to borrow from their friends and sometimes, they did not have the means to attend class.

Therefore, the government is working with selected telcos to supply the tablets to B40 university students so that they will still be able to attend online classes with ease. The budget allocated is RM450,000.

This is certainly awesome, we hope that the tablets will be in the hands of those who really need them!
