Malaysia's property bubble: A wake up call
For generations, Malaysians have lived by an unwavering belief: Buy property. It never depreciates. This axiom has been deeply ingrained, marketed as an infallible shield against inflation, a tangible emblem of success and a steadfast repository of wealth consistently outpacing market volatility.

Armizan proposes allowing RM100 Sara credit to be used at mobile Rahmah sales locations
RANAU: The Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDN) has proposed allowing the RM100 Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (Sara) credit to be used at mobile Madani Rahmah Sales locations. Its minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said the proposal aims to improve access for communities in rural and remote areas, who may otherwise struggle to redeem the aid due to limited fixed retail premises in their districts. At present, there are 4,152 authorised premises nationwide where the credit can be used, including only 470 in Sabah. These are mostly permanent outlets such as supermarkets approved under the Finance Ministry. 'To reach more people, especially those outside urban centres, we are propose that Sara redemptions can be made at mobile Rahmah Sales locations,' he said at the ministry's carnival and Buy Malaysian Goods Campaign in Ranau, Saturday (July 26). 'These mobile outlets include sales of local Malaysian products and essential items, and are regularly deployed across rural districts. We believe expanding redemption options beyond the fixed premises would significantly improve access, particularly in Sabah,' he added. The RM100 Sara credit — a one-off cashless aid credited to MyKad starting Aug 31 — is open to all Malaysians aged 18 and above. It is part of an additional RM2bil allocation announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim on July 23, bringing the total allocation under Sara and Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah (STR) to RM15bil this year. The expansion of mobile Madani Rahmah Sales is supported by an additional RM300mil allocation under the government's Payung Rahmah initiative. The Cost of Living Ministry is targeting 20,000 mobile Rahmah sales sessions nationwide this year, with 2,276 planned for Sabah alone. Between January and July, 1,089 sessions have already been carried out in the state. As of July 2025, Sabah has received RM410mil in STR aid for 830,000 recipients, while RM500mil in Sara assistance has been disbursed to 506,000 people. The carnival and KBBM in Ranau is part of a broader outreach initiative to promote local products, reduce import dependency, and bring government services directly to grassroots communities. 'This is not just about aid distribution, but strengthening our local economy and empowering micro and small enterprises,' Armizan said.

220 Felda Entrepreneurs To Join Mega 3D Carnival
BUSINESS KUALA LUMPUR, July 26 (Bernama) -- A total of 220 entrepreneurs from the Federal Land Development Authority (Felda) will take part in the Mega 3 Dimensional Carnival (MK3D) from July 30 to August 3 at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC) here. Felda director of community economic development, Datuk Muhammad Rizal Abdul Rahim, said the carnival aims to provide Felda entrepreneurs with opportunities to sell and promote their products, as well as explore new markets both domestically and abroad. 'We see strong market potential for Felda entrepreneurs' products not only within their schemes but globally as well. 'Through this carnival, entrepreneurs can showcase their products directly to visitors. This could open the door for future bulk orders, which is the outcome we are targeting,' he said during an interview on Bernama TV's 'Ruang Bicara Aspirasi Ekonomi' programme, themed 'Empowering the Community Economy', aired yesterday. On July 24, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi announced the launch of MK3D as a key initiative to consolidate various entrepreneurship programmes under a single, holistic platform. He said the carnival integrates the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development (KKDW), Felda, and the Ministry of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives (KUSKOP) into a high-impact programme that also helps reduce government spending. 'It brings together three flagship initiatives—KKDW's Rural Entrepreneurs Carnival, Felda Settlers' Day, and KUSKOP's One District One Industry Showcase—as a strategic approach to rural development,' he said. Muhammad Rizal also said Felda entrepreneurs have welcomed efforts by the agency to help promote their products online and across e-commerce and social media platforms. 'We now have avenues to market our products through our own channels, including websites and TikTok, to support our entrepreneurs.
