MORE than 20,000 civil servants in Selangor will receive two-and-a-half months’ salary, which will be paid in stages.

Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari said the first phase of the special financial assistance (BKK), amounting to one month’s salary, or a minimum of RM1,000, was disbursed in conjunction with Aidilfitri earlier this year.

“The second payment of one month’s salary, or a minimum of RM1,000, involving a financial implication of RM40.03 million, will be disbursed on December 28.

“The remaining half-month salary payment, or a minimum of RM1,000, will be paid in February 2024 in preparation for the 2024 school session, expected to commence in March,” he said when tabling the 2024 Selangor budget in Shah Alam today.

Amirudin said BKK 2023 is paid to all employees of the Selangor administration, including federally funded government service members. – Bernama, November 10, 2023.
