Children of FRU crash victims to receive SSPN benefits
PTPTN chairman Norliza Rahim hoped the benefits will ensure that the children receive a proper education. (Bernama pic) IPOH : The three children of the late Roslan Rahim, a Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) personnel who was killed in a recent road crash, are eligible to receive RM193,000 in benefits through the National Education Savings Scheme (Simpan SSPN). National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) chairman Norliza Rahim said the benefits were derived from the late 46-year-old FRU officer's savings under two products – Simpan SSPN Prime and Simpan SSPN Plus. The late Roslan had opened a Simpan SSPN Prime account for himself on May 7, making him eligible for a takaful protection benefit of RM1,000 and a death benefit of RM3,000. 'He also opened three Simpan SSPN Plus accounts under the Intan Package for his three children on March 31, 2019. 'With a monthly commitment of RM30 per account – RM20 for savings and RM10 for takaful – he qualified for Simpan SSPN Plus benefits, including an accidental death takaful coverage of RM60,000 per account, totalling RM180,000 for all three children. 'Additionally, the beneficiaries are entitled to a death benefit of RM9,000 for the three accounts. This brings the total Simpan SSPN Plus benefits to RM189,000, and the overall benefits including Simpan SSPN Prime to RM193,000,' she said during a visit to Roslan's home here today. She said another FRU personnel killed in the same accident, Amiruddin Zabri, 38, who was also a Simpan SSPN Prime depositor, received a takaful protection benefit and death benefit totalling RM4,000. Norliza and other PTPTN officials also visited five homes of the FRU accident victims in Perak today. During the visits, Norliza said PTPTN has provided RM15,000 in donations to the children of the FRU crash victims, with each of the 15 children receiving RM1,000 in the form of a Simpan SSPN Prime account. 'Although no amount can replace their loss, the benefits received are hoped to safeguard the education of the children and support their future,' she said. Nine FRU personnel were killed and nine others injured when the truck they were in collided with a gravel-laden lorry on Jalan Chikus-Sungai Lampam, Teluk Intan, while returning to their base in Sungai Senam, Teluk Intan on Tuesday morning.

TELUK INTAN: Grief hung heavy in the air as families of the nine Federal Reserve Unit personnel gathered outside the mortuary of Teluk Intan Hospital. The solemn silence was occasionally broken by the quiet sobs of loved ones awaiting the post-mortem results of the nine. The wife of Kpl Amiruddin Zabri, 38, could not hold back her tears when speaking about the tragedy. Norazian Mohd Joned, 38, a civil servant attached with the Kampar police district headquarters, said she met him on Monday (May 12) afternoon, shortly before he left to carry out his duty in Teluk Intan. The mother of three children aged between 12 and one year and three months from Gopeng said she was used to him traveling outstation for work. "This morning I received information in some chat groups regarding the accident, and I immediately called my husband, but the calls went unanswered. "I then called a friend of my husband, who told me to be calm, and he then broke the news to me," she said. The brother of Sjn S. Perumal, 44, another personnel who died in the accident, said his older brother was supposed to take his family in a car for the Chitra Pournami festival in Teluk Intan. Ahren, 41, a teacher, said his brother had told his wife, a nurse at the Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital, and their two young children to come along to attend the event, and that he would drive. Perumal has two daughters aged seven and five. The older girl is autistic. "However, because it was difficult to manage the children, especially with the girl being autistic, his wife decided not to go. "Since my brother would be on duty, it will be difficult for the wife to manage with the two daughters," he said, adding that his brother then followed the troupe. Perumal stays in Lahat near Ipoh and has been in the police force since 2011.
