PETALING JAYA: The MCA has slammed the government over its lack of proper planning for the rollout of the e-tunai Rakyat initiative, which saw e-wallet systems overwhelmed by the response.

President Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong said that proper planning would have ensured that there would be no difficulty in redeeming the e-tunai Rakyat.

“I am not protesting that incentives are being given to the people. If not, of course I would have protested when the Barisan Nasional government introduced BR1M (1Malaysia People’s Aid) previously.

“However the main problem here is the system, ” he said.


Dr Wee added that many were left disappointed because they had trouble redeeming the RM30 e-tunai Rakyat.

“Some had been trying to register (to claim the RM30) since morning, only to have it approved in the evening.

“Some still have not managed to register until now, ” he said in a Facebook post on Thursday (Jan 16).

He also criticised Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng.

“After being heavily criticised on social media, the Finance Minister said he would meet with the three e-wallet operators.

“Perhaps Lim is trying to deflect the people’s criticism to them, ” Dr Wee said.

Lim reportedly invited the media to ask the e-wallet companies whether the apps were still “hanging” (experiencing slowdowns) and if so, added that these companies would be “hanged” as well.

The e-tunai Rakyat initiative received more than 200,000 applications as of noon on Wednesday (Jan 15) when it was launched.

The scheme, which will run from Jan 15 to March 14, benefits Malaysians aged 18 and above who earn less than RM100,000 a year.

The RM30 can be used to purchase goods and services available through the respective e-wallet of the user’s choice.

I think the fault is with TnG and not the government.

Grab and Boost no problem also.
Only TnG system down. zzz

ok which part of your privacy you want to hide? your internet search history?

woof woof

Last time got leash kot

last time cannot bite/bark at owner. now owner going to jail, so become mad dog and bark everywhere

If the 3 biggest ones also struggle, what you think it will do to the 100 chikai ones with their shitty server?

It will distribute the load to hundreds instead of only three ??

apa lj ? the period to claim is 1 month , and he want everyone to claim on 1st day and get immediately ?

Nope, it will distribute the similar load to the hundreds.

Half of those that apply, applied to all 3.

Given the delays in 'checking', it means the qualified list was not given to the providers, but rather they checked with another system after they received the application. So instead of 3 providers having to confirm the one soherm that already received it say from Grab, now all 300 operators have to check in the same system to be told that soherm already got it.

And again, there is probably 3-4 e-wallets that is widely accepted across the country, and the government's aim is to encourage and push e-wallet spending, so there really ain't a lot of point to give it to a ah chong sdn bhd provider that is only accepted in ah chong mart in some ulu place.

If we were China, they would just give it to Wechat and say everyone have to use Wechat.

The delay in checking is not the main issue but lot of time the apps crashed or hung due to high load

How to process the checking if the apps connection is constantly crashed?

If more providers coming in - the smaller one can provide more attractive incentives for ppl to go there and this will lessen the load on the big three

Problem lies with service provider and he blames gomen. This fucker high on weed ah?

So you buy a car, have to wait 3 months because high demand you blame gomen/JPJ for allowing the sales of that model ah?

Fuck off la
