KPF Unveils Investment Asset Rationalisation Plan To Strengthen Its Position
KUALA LUMPUR, May 16 (Bernama) -- Koperasi Permodalan FELDA Malaysia Berhad (KPF) today unveiled its Investment Asset Rationalisation Plan to further strengthen its position as a resilient and credible cooperative institution.
KPF chairman Datuk Mohd Banuri Aris said the plan, anchored on three key strategies, aims to ensure the institution remains sustainable and fulfils its commitments to members, while also restoring their confidence.
'The first strategy involves the sale of selected plantation assets, which is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2025. Second is the disposal of properties that do not generate sustainable returns, and third is the restructuring of equity holdings in associate companies.
'These measures are not only intended to regenerate cash flow, but also to pave the way for a more sustainable and competitive business model in the long term,' he told a press conference today.
Mohd Banuri said that despite facing high demand for share withdrawals, having received 29,159 applications worth RM691.58 million from 2022 until April this year, KPF remains committed to fulfilling its obligations to members.
He added that 18,783 applications worth RM319.44 million have been processed and paid, while the remaining 10,376 applications valued at RM372 million will be fulfilled in phases.
'Withdrawals are paid in stages using a rotation system. Priority is given to applications involving critical needs such as haj, umrah, medical treatment, education, legal cases, and other urgent situations carefully evaluated by the board,' he said.
He also expressed appreciation to FELDA and its chairman, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek, for their trust and cooperation, including KPF's appointment as the sole agent for the purchase of Fresh Fruit Bunches and management of Palm Collection Centres across all FELDA schemes.
Mohd Banuri said KPF has maintained stable financial performance without recording losses since its establishment in 1980, a testament to its sound management and economic foundation.

e-Invoice Implementation For Revenue Below RM5 Mln Deferred To Jan 1, 2026
KUALA LUMPUR, June 5 (Bernama) -- The Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) today announced that the implementation phase for e-invoices for taxpayers with annual income or sales exceeding RM1 million but not exceeding RM5 million has been postponed to Jan 1, 2026. In a statement here, LHDN also announced that taxpayers with an annual income or sales below RM500,000 are exempted from the implementation of the e-Invoice system. "The implementation phase for taxpayers with annual income or sales up to RM1 million has been postponed to July 1, 2026," LHDN said. The board added that the decision was made after the government recognised the commitments of taxpayers, particularly Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), in meeting e-invoice legal requirements, which necessitate adequate preparation time and face numerous implementation challenges. The statement said that, in line with this decision, a new timeline for the e-invoice implementation phases has been established with Phase 3 targeting taxpayers with annual income or sales exceeding RM5 million but not exceeding RM25 million coming into effect on July 1, 2025. LHDN noted that Phase 4 will involve taxpayers with annual incomes or sales exceeding RM1 million up to RM5 million and will begin on Jan 1, 2026 while Phase 5 will cover the income group of up to RM1 million and will commence on July 1, 2026. The previously announced six-month grace period will also apply to these new phases, the agency said. It stressed that during this period, taxpayers will be permitted to issue consolidated e-invoices for all transactions, including self-billed e-invoices. Necessary details, it said, can be included in the 'Product or Service Description' field.
