According to a statement today, the said programme would help low-income users purchase Perlindungan Tenang products, which cover death, property damage, accidents and others from licensed insurance companies and takaful operators.
“Approximately 270,000 Malaysians from the B40 group have received the benefits of Perlindungan Tenang in January 2022 and 70 per cent of them have claimed it through the Touch ‘n Go eWallet.

After selecting the participating insurance companies or takaful operators, participants will have to click “Tebus Sekarang” to submit the application. Thereafter, an email will be sent to the participants by the insurer within seven working days informing on the status of the application.
“Perlindungan Tenang is an initiative by the insurance and takaful industry that provides insurance and takaful products to meet the needs of Malaysian who have yet to be covered, especially the B40 population.
