Wondering what the National Budget 2024 holds for our Malaysian youth? Look no further! Our recent forum featuring four dynamic youth speakers from different political backgrounds sparked a wave of inspiration and thought-provoking insights on how the budget impacts the future of Malaysia's young generation. 🇲🇾 🗣️💭


🔍 Key Takeaways:


💰 Rewarding Youth Volunteering:
This year's exciting initiative promises RM500 rewards for youth who volunteer with government-recognised NGOs. It's not just about the cash; it's about breaking out of your comfort zone and gaining first hand exposure to the diverse lives of fellow Malaysians. 🤝


💡 EPF Flexibility and Financial Literacy:
The discussion also delved into the pressing issue of EPF withdrawals. While it may provide immediate relief, the future costs are a concern. In the forum, the speakers discuss the introduction of a flexible EPF account that calls for more emphasis to empower our youth to build financial literacy and personal social security. 💸📚

🛠️ Bridging the Implementation Gap:
Addressing the national budget, our speakers recognized the need for thorough planning and ironing out details before implementing the proposed changes. The consensus? Youth involvement in decision-making is essential for meaningful progress! 📊📈

🤝 Political Party Collaboration:
United we stand! In a surprising note, you will see our youth speakers putting aside their ideologies and differences to have a mature and constructive discussion. Today, mature collaboration between political parties cannot be vital enough for Malaysia to make meaningful progress as ultimately, all youths just want a better Malaysia. 🇲🇾🤝
