E-Kasih Family Insurance Scheme

The government has agreed to prepare the Malaysian Family Insurance Scheme to provide social protection to the 268,000 families in the poor and hardcore poor categories. Heads of households registered in the eKasih system would get the insurance coverage, with a premium of RM50 a year, and involved a cost of RM13.4 million.

eKasih - In the event the head of household dies, the family will get RM10,000, permanent disability (RM10,000) and death due to accident (RM20,000). Pru-Takaful BSN, through its corporate social responsibility (CSR) since 2018, has provided free insurance coverage of RM30,000 for heads of households registered through eKasih.
