Remember the ePemula programme announced two weeks ago? It's this year's version of the eBelia programme from last year and aims to distribute RM300 million to Malaysian youths. Well, it's time to save that allowance because the programme is starting soon.

Earlier today, the Ministry of Finance announced that registration for the ePemula programme will begin on 11 April 2022. It's available to all youths between the ages of 18 to 20, or full-time students in any institution of higher learning. As a reminder, each eligible Malaysian can claim RM150 through BigPay, GrabPay, ShopeePay, or Touch 'n Go eWallet.

The government didn't reveal when the money would be distributed, but we expect the process to be complete within a week or so. Having said that, it was confirmed that the RM150 must claim before 1 June 2022. It was also announced that there will be other incentives for youths in the form of cashback, vouchers, or 'coins'. However, the exact details weren't revealed.

For a summary of the details, you can visit the official ePemula webpage. With that said, how would you spend that RM150? Let us know in the comments below, and stay tuned to TechNave for more local news like this.
