KUALA LUMPUR, June 30 -- TikTok Shop has become the first e-commerce platform to implement the Jualan Ihsan RAHMAH programme in collaboration with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN). Minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said the collaboration takes the RAHMAH Sales concept online, making it easier for consumers to purchase essential goods at affordable prices. Under the programme, consumers can purchase selected essential goods comprising 75 stock keeping units (SKUs) at discounted prices from participating retailers HeroMarket and KedaiFGV via TikTok Shop. "There were suggestions that we should introduce RAHMAH Sales online. However, when the government implements any initiative, it has to consider all aspects based on the resources available. "Fortunately, before the government rolled out an online RAHMAH Sales programme, TikTok pioneered the online Jualan Ihsan RAHMAH initiative," he said after officiating the JomLokal 2026: Lokal Jaga Lokal Festival and launching Jualan Ihsan RAHMAH at Ampang here today. Also present was TikTok Shop Malaysia senior director of Strategic Partnerships, Nur Azre Abdul Aziz. Armizan said TikTok Shop is contributing RM180 million to implement three key components of the programme, including discount vouchers offering savings of up to 30 per cent on selected essential goods. The collaboration also provides zero per cent commission for 56 product subcategories, reduced platform fees for another 39 subcategories, and a RM2 shipping rebate for every eligible order nationwide to help lower sellers' operating costs and consumers' online shopping expenses. "The programme has three main objectives: to elevate local products, help address the cost of living and support entrepreneurs in increasing their income," he said. Armizan said the programme also complements the Buy Malaysian Products Campaign (JOM MALAYSIA), launched on June 27, by promoting a whole-of-nation approach to supporting local products, services and entrepreneurs. -- BERNAMA

Minister of Entrepreneur and Cooperative Development Steven Sim said the effectiveness of the spending was measured through several outcome indicators, including an increase in sales of at least 20 percent among participants and 150 companies successfully increasing their business size. "Regarding the government's return on investment , the ministry measures the effectiveness of empowerment programs and overall spending from various outcome indicators or tangible results for participants," he said.

According to him, for the first five months of this year, the ministry has approved financing worth RM5 billion which has benefited almost 180,000 entrepreneurs of various races and business categories nationwide. He said for the period 2025 to May 2026, specific programmes for Bumiputera entrepreneurs through agencies under KUSKOP have approved financing totaling RM1.407 billion to more than 53,000 Bumiputera entrepreneurs. "Of that total, 11,469 Bumiputera youth received benefits with an allocation of more than RM251 million," he said. Steven said the ministry also implemented elements of halal industry development through various programs through its agencies to help entrepreneurs obtain halal certification to expand the market. Regarding Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudin's (PN-Masjid Tanah) proposal regarding a national database system or single window mechanism for coordinating assistance to micro, small and medium enterprises (PMKS), Steven said KUSKOP had appointed SME Corp Malaysia as the coordinating agency. "SME Corp is being used as a one-stop centre to coordinate in terms of financing, grants, funds and other support systems. SME Corp also plays a role in facilitating the provision of information, channeling applicants and PMKS to the appropriate agencies," he said. Steven said KUSKOP was also implementing an initiative to develop a website or portal as a one-stop centre to list various types of support provided by more than 60 government agencies. -- BERNAMA

KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit opened higher against the US dollar on Monday as the local currency continued to receive good support from low crude oil prices. At 8am, the local currency was at 4.0855/0950 against the US dollar from 4.0860/0910 at the close last Friday. Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd Chief Economist, Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid, said that West Texas Intermediate and Brent crude oil prices were at US$69.87 per barrel and US$72.46 per barrel, respectively, while the United States (US) and Iran were expected to continue their negotiations. “Ships continuing to pass through the Strait of Hormuz shows that the oil shortage could be resolved soon. "In this regard, the US dollar/ringgit is expected to be at RM4.08 to RM4.10 today," he told Bernama. In the opening session, the ringgit traded higher against a basket of major currencies. It rose against the pound to 5.3929/4054 from 5.4013/4079 at last Friday's close, rose against the euro to 4.6526/6634 from 4.6605/6662 and rose against the Japanese yen to 2.5258/5318 from 2.5283/5316 previously.

KUALA LUMPUR, JUNE 27 -- The country's palm oil industry has the potential to generate new economic value by utilising approximately 80 percent of the remaining palm oil biomass which was previously considered waste. Chairman of the Organizing Committee of the Sixth International Palm Oil Biomass Conference 2026, Professor Datuk Ahmad Ibrahim, said that the palm oil industry has so far focused more on oil production which only accounts for about 20 percent of the total palm oil biomass. "The remaining 80 percent is often considered waste that causes problems for the environment, such as dumping empty bunches." "However, recent research shows that this waste has great potential to be converted into high-value products," he said on Bernama Radio's Fokus 30 programme titled "New Opportunities in the Palm Oil Industry Through Biomass and Green Economy" here yesterday. He said palm oil biomass not only involves empty bunches in the factory, but also includes fronds cut in the plantation and palm tree trunks when the replanting process is carried out after a 25-year maturity period. Ahmad said current innovations allow palm trunks to be converted into timber for the construction sector, in addition to the production of paper, biochemicals as a substitute for petrochemicals and graphite material from palm waste for use in electric vehicle batteries. To drive the commercialization of biomass-based products more aggressively, Ahmad suggested that the government strengthen the public procurement agenda by becoming the main buyer of the product, especially in the country's housing sector. Meanwhile, he said the transition from a linear economy (build-use-dispose) to a circular economy through palm biomass was important to address the issue of global raw material depletion as well as support Malaysia's target of achieving net zero emissions by 2050. “Through the circular economy, products are designed to be more durable, recyclable and reduce waste. "This move will not only provide additional returns to the industry but also direct economic spillover to smallholders through the involvement of the global carbon credit market which is currently reaching up to US$70 (RM287) per tonne in Japan," he said. To detail the direction, challenges and efforts to create a more transparent biomass market ecosystem, the Sixth International Palm Oil Biomass Conference 2026 will be held at Cyberview Resort & SPA, Cyberjaya on 14 and 15 July. The conference, themed "Empowering the Circular Economy and Sustainability", is open to the public, small and medium enterprise entrepreneurs, researchers and local and international investors to build a network of strategic collaborations. -- BERNAMA
