Malaysia’s subsidy system is changing! The Madani government has introduced a new system – PAKW (Perbelanjaan Asaas Kehidupan Wajar). It is a new bracket approach that calculates future subsidy distributions based on net disposable income rather than income bracket. But how does this new system compare against the old B40/M40/T20 framework? Will it improve subsidy targeting, and what impact will it have on Malaysia’s wealth gap?
In this video, we’ll compare the old B40/M40/T20 system with the PAKW. While the previous system was okay, it didn’t account for factors like household size, location, or personal circumstances. PAKW, on the other hand, calculates a more accurate basic expenditure for a decent life based on 419 essential items, from food and utilities to transportation. I’ll walk you through how PAKW works, share an example, and explain how it determines eligibility for subsidies like petrol, electricity, and cooking oil.
