PerantiSiswa Keluarga Malaysia is a government assistance scheme to help college students from low-income families. Through this scheme, college students will receive a free tablet.
The tablets distributed through a college equipment scheme in Malaysia will have to meet certain specifications so that college students do not have to worry about getting a low-quality tablet. It is understood that the free tablet must have a screen of no less than 10.1 inches, a keyboard and pen, and no less than 4GB of memory.
The device scheme is available to students of public and private colleges, community colleges and higher education institutions. Students are eligible for a free tablet as long as their household income does not exceed RM4850.
Applications for the free tablets will be open in mid-April and will be distributed to college students as early as the first week of June. Students with incomplete applications, rejected applications and omissions can appeal.
The Government will announce how to apply and how to collect the tablets at a later date.
