Army hails revised incentive scheme as boost for personnel performance
KUALA TERENGGANU: The armed forces have welcomed the enhancement of the performance-based incentive payments (BIPs) system announced yesterday by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Army deputy chief Lieutenant-General Datuk Tengku Muhammad Fauzi Tengku Ibrahim said the incentive would serve as both encouragement and a benchmark for improving the performance of army personnel. "This is a positive step. The incentive can also act as a catalyst for personnel to progress to higher levels and to develop the social skills essential for military service in line with current needs," he told reporters after officiating at the closing ceremony of the Rapid Deployment Force Basic Course (APAC) Series 2/2025 at Dataran Drawbridge here today. Anwar had announced that the revised scheme would be extended to other ranks, namely Sergeant Equivalent (Grade Z4) and Staff Sergeant Equivalent (Grade Z5), while the qualifying period for BIP had been reduced from six years to four years. The revision is expected to benefit 3,789 personnel, with an estimated annual financial implication of RM6.47 million. Meanwhile, 131 participants, comprising male and female personnel of the 10th Parachute Brigade — including seven officers — successfully completed the six-week course, which began on July 13. Also present were 512 Territorial Army (Askar Wataniah) Commander Brigadier General Tengku Sri Temenggong Raja Tengku Baharuddin Sultan Mahmud Al-Muktafi Billah Shah, 10th Parachute Brigade Commander Khairul Anwar Soib, and Terengganu police chief Datuk Mohd Khairi Khairudin.
