T<\/span>he living allowance (Elaun Sara Hidup \u2013 ESH) for local and overseas Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA) sponsored students will be increased with immediate effect, Prime Minister, YAB Dato\u2019 Sri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced today.<\/p>\n

For local students, the new living allowance rate has been raised from a minimum of RM650 to a maximum of RM950 per month, which will apply to all levels of education from diploma to professional and doctorate levels.<\/p>\n

Overseas students, meanwhile, will receive the minimum rate of RM1,380 per month up to a maximum of RM7,600 depending on the level of study.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThis (increased rate) will benefit a total of 62,998 MARA-sponsored students effective September 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that this allowance increase is very appropriate and will help ease the burden on \u2018Keluarga Malaysia\u2019 students due to rising living costs,\u201d he told.<\/p>\n

The increased rate of allowance is also following a \u2018Special Operation\u2019 conducted by MARA and Public Service Department (PSD) in February this year, to review the sponsored students\u2019 cost of living in main cities such as London, Bristol and Edinburgh.\u00a0<\/p>\n
