Couples intending to get married this year will receive a RM100 bonus on top of an earlier announced RM200 incentive.
Selangor Menteri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim said yesterday this was in line with Selangor Pakatan's promise in its 13th General Election manifesto to offer a RM500 gift to couples getting married for the first time.
Those who wish to apply for the incentive must be 35 years old or younger and must have been residing in Selangor for at least 15 years.
"It is also to collect information for use in other 'Merakyatkan Ekonomi Selangor' programmes, for example, including them in the state's affordable housing programme."
Khalid said during a marriage incentive giveaway ceremony at Bangunan Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah here yesterday.
He said the RM100 bonus would not apply to the first phase recipients who had received up to RM400 per couple in the ceremony yesterday, which involved about 170 couples. Couples can register at their community service centres in all 56 state constituencies.
PR must prove it....
