00:00I take this opportunity to express my gratitude for achieving a better financial year for 2024.
00:10Recovering Haji's salary consistently, giving more benefits to cleaners after zakat was abolished.
00:22I express my gratitude to Allah SWT,
00:27stating that the bonus of the financial year 2024 is 3.25%,
00:39after taking into account the abolishment of zakat, which is 2.5775%.
00:48The bonus of the financial year 2024 is 2.92 billion ringgit
00:58and will benefit more than 9.54 million cleaners.
01:06The increase in bonus compared to previous years
01:12is the highest rate recorded in 7 years since 2018.
01:20This makes the amount of bonus since the growth for 61 years
01:27accumulated as much as 45.79 billion ringgit until now.
01:35This part of the benefit is boosted by a better investment base,
01:41the positive effect of the economic growth and stock market in the country in 2024,
01:48as well as continued efforts to control the cost of operations.
01:53As an institution that manages the storage of deposits for performing Haji prayers,
01:59Tabung Haji has helped more than 1.5 million Muslims in the country to perform Haji prayers since its establishment
02:08and has also contributed to the financial support of Haji as much as 2.8 billion ringgit since it was introduced in 2001.
02:19In addition to the main role of performing Haji prayers in the country's congregations,
02:25Tabung Haji also plays a role in the storage of donations
02:30through the investment of shariah patuh and zakat donations for donors.
02:38As in previous years,
02:41Tabung Haji continues to carry out the responsibility of donating as much as
02:4799.35 million ringgit to all Muslim congregations in the country
02:56for Tabung Haji's deposit of 2.575% for 2024.
03:08Tabung Haji hopes that this zakat donation,
03:12directly or indirectly,
03:15can help the government's efforts committed to addressing the poverty issue
03:22as well as eliminating poverty.
