Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has announced that all Malaysian adults aged 18 years old and above will receive their Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (SARA) RM100 credit on 9th February 2026.
SARA is a one-off cash aid from the government which is utilised to purchase essential goods at participating supermarkets and retail outlets.
The upcoming disbursement is the second round of SARA following the first round which ran from 31st August to 31st December 2025.
