Govt testing Rakyat e-wallet system, software - Lim


KUALA LUMPUR: The government is in the midst of testing the e-Tunai Rakyat -- an e-wallet system and software for the people -- together with e-wallet providers and government agencies, said Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng.

He said this was in line with the government’s plan to distribute a one-off RM30 e-credit to eligible Malaysian e-wallet users -- which can be claimed from Jan 1-Feb 29 next year -- in an effort to boost its usage among the people.
