A few months ago, it was announced that the National Service Training Program (PLKN) 3.0 would be returning after a 7-year break and that the programme, which would cost approximately RM50 million, would be implemented in stages starting January 2025.

Today (January 12), PLKN 3.0 officially resumed as over 130 volunteer trainees from across the country reported to the Territorial Army’s 515 Regiment Camp.

The trial trainees, aged 18 to 20, will undergo military and statehood training for 45 days until Feb 25 as part of the effort to instill patriotism, national unity, and character in Malaysian youth and equip them with the strength to face life’s challenges through physical and mental training.

The re-implementation of the programme is being conducted in stages and is based on the National Service Training Act (Act 628), the National Security Policy, the Defence White Paper, and related policies.

Following the trial period, the next phase of the programme will be conducted at 13 Territorial Army camps, 20 public universities, 33 polytechnics, 27 teacher training institutes, and several public skill/industrial training institutes that will be the programme’s basic training sites throughout the country.

 

What do you think of the programme’s return? Let us know in the comments.
