KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 19): Yayasan Peneraju, an agency under the Ministry of Economy, has introduced a membership fee rebate to encourage its talents and alumni to register and become members of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA). The amount will be deducted from their outstanding repayment balance with Yayasan Peneraju. In a statement on Sunday, Yayasan Peneraju chief executive officer Ibrahim Sani said the move is aimed at supporting Bumiputera accounting talents in obtaining the Chartered Accountant (Malaysia), or CA (Malaysia), designation conferred by MIA. Since its establishment, Yayasan Peneraju has supported more than 90,000 Bumiputera individuals across high-impact sectors, including technology and professional development. For 2026, Yayasan Peneraju aims to train 2,000 more professionally qualified accountants as part of its broader target of producing 5,000 such professionals annually by 2030.
