Impak insentif ekonomi terhadap golongan berpendapatan rendah Program Perumahan Rakyat, Kuala Lumpur (The implications of economic incentives toward low income peoples at People Housing Project, Kuala Lumpur)
Abstract
Malaysia adalah sebuah negara yang semakin pesat membangun berbanding negara-negara di Asia Tenggara yang lain. Sejajar dengan pembangunan ekonomi, kerajaan telah memperkenalkan pelbagai insentif untuk menaiktaraf kualiti hidup rakyat khususnya bagi penduduk yang berpendapatan rendah. Bagi mengatasi isu miskin bandar yang kian meningkat, kerajaan telah memperkenalkan konsep 1Malaysia yang merangkumi pelbagai aspek pembangunan khususnya dalam bidang ekonomi dan sosial. Tujuan kajian ini dijalankan adalah untuk mengenalpasti implikasi dan faedah insentif 1Malaysia yang diberikan oleh kerajaan kepada kelompok masyarakat yang berpendapatan rendah. Kajian ini dilaksanakan di empat buah kawasan Program Perumahan Rakyat (PPR) iaitu PPR Laksamana, PPR Kerinchi, PPR Intan Baiduri, dan PPR Sungai Bonus. Setiap PPR akan diwakili 10 peratus daripada jumlah penduduk iaitu 35 orang bagi PPR Laksamana, 160 orang penduduk dari PPR Kerinchi, 100 orang PPR Intan Baiduri dan 30 orang penduduk daripada PPR Sungai Bonus. Hasil kajian mendapati kebanyakan penduduk menyokong insentif 1Malaysia yang diperkenalkan oleh pihak kerajaan dari segi kemudahan kesihatan, pendidikan, ekonomi dan sosial. Ini bermakna rata-rata pengguna berpuas hati dengan insentif yang diberikan kerana ia dikatakan dapat meringankan beban perbelanjaan yang ditanggung atas faktor kos sara hidup yang semakin meningkat. Oleh itu, perlaksanaan insentif 1Malaysia ini seharusnya dikekalkan dan seterusnya menyumbang kepada peningkatan taraf hidup komuniti berpendapatan rendah di Malaysia.

Malaysia is one of the countries that is growing rapidly compared to other Southeast Asian countries. In the economic development aspect, the government has introduced various types of incentives to improve the quality of life, especially among the people with low-income. In the effort to eradicate urban poverty issues, the government has introduced 1Malaysia conceptual project which encompasses various aspects of development, particularly in economic and social enhancement. The purpose of this study is to identify the implications and benefits of 1Malaysia incentives provided by the government to low-income peoples. This research has been conducted in four locations of Program Perumahan Rakyat (PPR), which is PPR Laksamana, PPR Kerinchi, PPR Intan Baiduri and PPR Sungai Bonus. Sample size for each PPR is represented by 10% of the total population, which is 35 respondents from PPR Laksamana, 160 respondents from PPR Kerinchi, 100 respondents from PPR Intan Baiduri and 30 respondents from PPR Sungai Bonus. The findings show most of the peoples supported 1Malaysia incentives introduced by the government in terms of health, education, economy and social facilities. This means most of the peoples were satisfied with the incentives and agreed that the incentives is able to help ease the burden of expenses due to the rising cost of living. Therefore, the implementation of 1Malaysia incentive should be sustained as it continuously contributes to improving the standard of living of the low-income communities in Malaysia.
