PETALING JAYA: The National Service Training Programme (PLKN) is set to be fully revived by 2027, with a pilot phase implemented first at the higher education level.
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said RM250 million has been allocated for the programme under the 2026 budget.
“PLKN will be reintroduced in 2026 to help young Malaysians build character, patriotism and a spirit of volunteerism,” he said when tabling the budget in the Dewan Rakyat today.
