MALAYSIA: The country’s Deputy Defence Minister, Adly Zahari, announced over the weekend that from January 2025, the National Service Training Programme 3.0 will begin implementation in stages.
“For next year, the government has allocated RM50 million for us to start PLKN 3.0,” he said. The programme had been set to begin in mid-2025. However, Mr Adly noted that it needs to begin earlier.
The initial implementation of the first intake, involving 500 participants, is to pioneer PLKN 3.0 before launching on a larger level with more participants in June. “We will use existing camps, and they are currently being refurbished. However, for the first intake, we will only be using two camps.
