SHAH ALAM, Nov 9 – Eligible families in Selangor can apply for the BINGKAS 3.0 financial assistance programme starting tomorrow, Nov 10.
The programme offers RM300 in monthly assistance for 12 months under its Dependent Children Category.
Selangor Women’s Development and Social Welfare Committee chairman Anfaal Saari said applications will open at 10 am through the SELANGKAH mobile application.
The assistance aims to help families manage daily expenses and provide essential items for their children.
What Can Recipients Buy?
Recipients can use the RM300 monthly aid to purchase basic necessities.
These include staple foods, daily household items and school supplies.
In addition, the programme now offers greater flexibility when making purchases. Eligible recipients can use their MyKad at selected registered retail outlets.
This allows families to access the assistance more conveniently when shopping for their daily needs.
BINGKAS 3.0 Eligibility Requirements
Applicants must meet several conditions to qualify for the programme.
They must be Malaysian citizens and registered voters in Selangor. Their monthly household income must not exceed RM5,000.
Applicants must also support at least two children aged 18 and below.
In addition, they must not have received assistance under the previous Bantuan Kasih Ibu Smart Selangor (KISS) programme.
The eligibility requirements aim to direct financial support towards families who need it most.
Why Has the Assistance Period Changed?
Anfaal said the programme has shortened its assistance period from 24 months to 12 months.
The change allows the authorities to review applications and renew assistance every year.
Through this process, the state government hopes to distribute financial aid more effectively. It can also reassess household needs and ensure that eligible families continue to receive support.
Anfaal said the initiative supports the state’s goal of strengthening family finances and improving residents’ quality of life.
The programme also aligns with the Second Selangor Plan (RS-2), which focuses on building a caring and liveable state.
How to Apply for BINGKAS 3.0
Eligible families can submit their applications online through the SELANGKAH app from 10 am on Nov 10.
Applicants should review the eligibility requirements and application procedures before submitting their details.
