Personal finance for Malaysia

Money, explained in seven slides.

Duit Poket turns the money questions Malaysians really ask into clear, fact-checked posts. Every day. Free. No hype, no hard sell.

Duit, dijelaskan dengan mudah.

One of seven slides, recreated from a real post published 6 Oct 2026. The figures are a labelled example.

The gap

Money advice online is loud, global and often selling something.

Malaysians ask local questions. How much can I take out of KWSP? What can I claim on LHDN tax? Is that investment a scam? Duit Poket answers those, in plain Malay and English, with a worked example you can check yourself.

What we do

Simple on the surface. Strict underneath.

Fact-checked

Figures come from official sources such as BNM, KWSP, LHDN and the Ministry of Finance. Rates change, so we re-check them before posting.

Seven slides, one idea

Each post is a short swipe: a clear hook, a worked example labelled Contoh, and one thing to do next. Nothing to decode.

Education only

No stock picks, no signals, no broker links. Right now we are not selling anything. We are earning trust first.

How it works

A small publishing system that runs every day.

  1. Listen

    Each week we scan which Malaysian finance posts people save and share the most.

  2. Write

    A draft follows a fixed style guide, with figures taken from official sources.

  3. Check

    A quality gate scores it for usefulness, credibility and platform rules. A post that fails is held, not published.

  4. Publish

    One post a day goes out on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube Shorts and Threads.

  5. Learn

    A weekly report shows what worked, and the next posts follow it.

Rules are set by a human and enforced by the system. The pipeline runs on scheduled Claude agents, so it keeps going without anyone at a keyboard. The brand is faceless by design, and there is no AI voiceover.

Traction, early days

Early days, and one post is already travelling.

Reputation and audience

One useful post a day, education only, nothing for sale. Every Saturday we scan what Malaysians are saving, and every Sunday a report shows what worked. Next up is a Budget 2027 explainer on 10 Oct, using official Ministry of Finance figures.

Free tools

Starting with an emergency-fund calculator, because that topic travelled furthest. More free calculators and checklists follow what readers ask for.

Planned Q1 2027

Ask Duit Poket

A Bahasa Malaysia money explainer built on the Claude API. It would answer from the same fact sheet and follow the same education-only rules, and point to official sources.

Our rules

What you can count on.

  • Education, not adviceWe explain how things work. We do not tell you what to buy.
  • Examples are labelledAny made-up figure is marked Contoh, so you never mistake it for a quote.
  • Held, not rushedIf a post does not pass our checks, it waits. Daily does not beat accurate.
  • No personal storiesWe never invent anecdotes. The brand is faceless and the posts are about money, not about us.

Follow along.
