Kuala Lumpur, 30 August 2021 - YES is celebrating the Malaysian spirit this Merdeka and Malaysia Day by introducing an array of initiatives to empower Malaysians to stay digitally connected in the new normal.

From additional brand new YES PRIHATIN Postpaid and Prepaid Plans for the B40 community to their all-new Pakej Merdeka RM1, YES has attractive plans for all Malaysians. 

YES PRIHATIN Plans For B40s

Following the successful launch of YES PRIHATIN plans in May and the Government ‘s extension of the Jaringan Prihatin programme to 30 September 2021, YES is giving more choices to meet different customer needs with the additional new YES PRIHATIN Postpaid and Prepaid Plans. For the postpaid plans, on top of unlimited calls and data, customers will also get a free Samsung Galaxy A02 to use for their daily needs – be it work, attending online classes, digitising their business, or to shop for everyday essentials.

Dato’ Yeoh Seok Hong, YTL Communications Managing Director said, “Since the launch of Jaringan Prihatin, we have had an overwhelming response towards our YES PRIHATIN Prepaid Plans. Together with the free device and data plans that we have given out under YTL Foundation’s Learn From Home Initiative. We have been able to positively impact over 1,000,000 B40 rakyat during this pandemic. The new range of offerings provides additional benefits to those who are willing to pay for the best value plans in the market. Our prepaid device and data plans are still available at no cost to customers under the Jaringan Prihatin programme.”

“While the YES PRIHATIN plans are offered to the B40 community, we also wanted to offer something for all Malaysians because we believe that every Malaysian deserves to have their lives elevated through the power of data. We are offering Malaysians something special with our new Pakej Merdeka RM1 so Malaysians can still experience the Merdeka vibes virtually with their loved ones. To top it all off, together with YTL Foundation we are offering an extension of the Learn From Home programme specially for our B40 children to continue learning despite the continuing uncertainty of the pandemic,” he added.

Pakej Merdeka RM1 For All Malaysians

In conjunction with the Merdeka celebrations, YES is running a special promotion for all Malaysians, through Pakej Merdeka RM1. With this new plan, customers can own the Samsung Galaxy A02 smartphone with just a one-time payment of RM1. To boot that, they will also get to enjoy 100GB of data every month and unlimited calls which is all we need right now to stay digitally connected.

Extension of free data under Learn From Home Initiative until 31 August 2022 

Adding to the Merdeka spirit at a time when schools continue to be closed to keep our children safe from the pandemic, YES is offering an additional 5GB per month from the expiry of the data plans provided free under YTL Foundation’s Learn From Home Initiative until  31 August 2022. This will ensure that the children in these B40 families can continue learning despite prolonged school closures. 

Dato’ Yeoh added, “As Malaysians brave through this tough time, YES as the rakyat’s telco is committed to improving the lives of Malaysians through the power of data so that Malaysia can move forward for the better. Looking ahead, we remain steadfast in our commitment to continued innovation with customers at the heart, with the goal of becoming a supercharged, data-powered platform that makes everyday experiences simpler, easier, and better.”
