Education Ministry to improve early schooling aid payment process from time to time, says minister

NIBONG TEBAL, Jan 18 ― The Ministry of Education will improve the payment process for the Bantuan Awal Persekolahan programme, including crediting it directly into the student’s or their parents’ bank accounts to ensure safety and save time.

“...but the early school aid payment process has its standard operating procedure and the finance division has determined how it takes place. The Nibong Tebal member of Parliament said this when asked to comment on former education minister Datuk Radzi Jidin’s proposal for the early school aid payments to be credited directly into the student’s bank account for safety and time savings.

The issue arose following an incident involving a school headmaster who lost RM109,000 in school aid allocated for a school in Beranang, Selangor, when it was stolen from his car last Monday.
