Govt launches voucher initiative


PUTRAJAYA: The Perlindungan Tenang Voucher 3.0 (PTV3.0) programme reflects the government’s commitment to improving the people’s living standards as enshrined in the Madani Economic Framework, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

The Prime Minister, who is also Finance Minister, said the initiative ensures that every household receives appropriate protection, thus building resilience and restoring the dignity of society.

“Through PTV3.0, the Madani government is determined to expand access to all. As such, health and safety assurance is not a luxury that can only be enjoyed by certain groups,” he said in a statement issued by the Finance Ministry, Bernama reported.

Starting Monday, recipients of Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah (STR) are eligible to redeem vouchers worth RM30 subsidised by the government to help finance part of the cost of affordable insurance and takaful products under PTV3.0.

In collaboration with the insurance and takaful industries, the government has allocated RM60mil under Budget 2025 to cover the cost of schemes under PTV3.0 to ensure wider access to low-income households.

According to the Finance Ministry, the effort complements other initiatives such as the Madani Medical Scheme and Peka B40 to strengthen the social safety net through targeted public-private partnerships.

In line with the government’s approach to channelling targeted and equitable assistance, the ministry will implement identity verification protocols in PTV3.0 to ensure valid applications.

STR recipients can check their eligibility and refer to PTV3.0 FAQs at www.myptv.my or visit any participating agent or distributor.
