Image from: ‘No more handouts!’ Majority of netizens don’t want BKM

Recently, the Prime Minister announced that eligible Malaysians would receive cash aid in order to help cope with the rising cost of goods.

Unfortunately, it seems like the majority (64.92% out of 3,800) of netizens who responded to this survey were not keen on the third phase of BKM (Bantuan Keluarga Malaysia) cash aid.

When asked “Do you support the PM’s consideration for a third phase of BKM cash aid?” those unsupportive said that it would be better to use the money to reduce the cost of goods as a whole.

Another person said that RM100 (to be given to households) won’t be much help anyway.

On a more positive note, one respondent said that PM Ismail Sabri really “cares for the rakyat.” 35.8% of respondents were supportive of the third BKM phase.

Well, what do you think? What would you do with the extra money if you receive it? Let us know in the comments below or cast your vote here if you haven’t done so yet!
