SHAH ALAM, Nov 13 — The Selangor State Government today announced a Special Financial Assistance (BKK) equivalent to two months’ salary for civil servants in the state.

Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said this incentive serves as a token of appreciation for the hard work of civil servants in delivering aid to the people, particularly through the implementation of the Pakej Pengukuhan Daya Tahan Selangor.

He noted that the implementation of this package has helped empower vulnerable groups, school students, working women, farmers, and padi farmers as they navigate the global energy crisis.

“The state government is announcing the ‘Kita Selangor’ Special Financial Assistance (BKK) for the year 2026, amounting to two months’ salary or allowance, with a minimum payment of RM1,000.

“This payment will be drawn from current-year allocations and will cover the emoluments of state government personnel including those whose salaries are paid by the federal government as well as teachers of ‘Kelas Al-Quran dan Fardu Ain’ (KAFA) religious classes, with a total financial implication of RM100.31 million.

“God willing, the ‘Kita Selangor’ BKK will be disbursed by December 21,” he said while tabling the Selangor Budget 2027 today.

Meanwhile, Amirudin said the state government proposed an increase in the monthly allowance for KAFA teachers by RM200, raising the total allowance from RM1,500 to RM1,700 starting from January 2027.

He said the proposal would involve 7,245 KAFA teachers appointed by the state and the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM), including 4,303 JAIS Fardhu Ain Teachers (GAF) and 2,942 JAKIM KAFA Teachers.

“The Selangor State Government always recognises the contributions and sacrifices of KAFA teachers as the main pillar in shaping a generation that is knowledgeable, faithful and of noble character. Therefore, the welfare and well-being of religious educators must continue to be prioritised, especially in facing the rising cost of living.

“This initiative is an initial step towards aligning the welfare of religious educators while appreciating their role in educating more than 100,000 students throughout Selangor. The increase in this allowance involves an additional financial implication of RM14 million, which will be covered by the state government,” he said.

He also said that the state government also plans to increase the allowance for KAFA teacher — those appointed by the state as well as by JAKIM — to RM2,000, in line with the new federal minimum wage rate that will take effect from June 2027. — Bernama
