Empowering women the Malaysia Madani way


KUALA LUMPUR: The i-Sayang initiative, which will see husbands contribute 2.0% of their EPF contributions to their wives, a RM1 million fund to assist those in need, and more places in decision-making roles are among the plans the government has devised for women.

These women’s empowerment and protection initiatives will be launched as part of the “Malaysia Madani” concept, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said.
