KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The closing date for new registrations or updates for the Bantuan Prihatin Rakyat (BPR) has been extended from Feb 15 to Feb 25, says Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz.
He said this was to ensure that only those eligible would receive the BPR as well as taking into account the current movement control order (MCO) implemented in most parts of the country.
Those who need to make new applications are those who have never received the Bantuan Sara Hidup (BSH) 2020 or the Bantuan Prihatin Nasional (BPN) B40 and whose household incomes are RM5,000 and below per month.
