Seeking help to claim for cash payout


I WOULD like to highlight my problem in getting the BPR (Bantuan Prihatin Nasional) 2021 cash aid and hope someone from the relevant authorities will look into this matter.

I am in the M40 income category (RM2,500 to RM5,000 per month) and depend on a meagre pension for my subsistence. When I did not receive the aid amounting to RM300 in June this year, I sent a letter of appeal dated July 14 to the Bukit Mertajam branch of the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (LHDN). Their initial response was that my application had been rejected because I did not provide details of my marital status (I am married).
