Get ready for a smart & exciting Food Journey with AmBank/AmBank Islamic TRUE Savers Account/-i 

First thing you would want to know is, what is AmBank TRUE Savers Account/-i all about?

1. Open your TRUE Savers Account/-i (+0.25%p.a. / 0.75%p.a.)

Firstly, you have to open an AmBank TRUE Savers Account or AmBank Islamic TRUE Savers Account-i with an initial deposit of RM20 only. By opening an account, you will get a steady interest/profit rate on any amount in your account! Here’s the base rate you will get:

Account balance up to RM5,000: 0.25%p.a.

Account balance above RM5,000: 0.75%p.a.

Yes, any amount above RM20 earns you at least a 0.25% rate. This is just the beginning!

2. Make Deposit (+1.15%p.a.)

You can increase the Bonus Rate by making a minimum deposit of RM3,000 in a single transaction into your account monthly. Do this every month and you will receive a bonus rate of 1.15% p.a.!

3. Spend & Pay (+0.60%p.a.)

 

Here’s the part that you will enjoy most! You can add another 0.60% p.a. of Bonus Rate by performing at least 3 transactions with accumulated spend of RM1,000 monthly via AmOnline, AmBank Debit Card, Credit Card or DuitNow QR Payment to Merchants.

Yes. This is where you can spend on good food!

OR

You can also choose to perform monthly repayments/payments of any amount for your Home Loan/Financing from your TRUE Savers Account/-i to enjoy the extra Bonus Rate of 0.60%p.a.!

Whichever you choose, both will work!

4. Purchase Unit Trusts or Insurance/Takaful (+2.00%p.a. / +4.00%p.a.)

Lastly, to maximise the Bonus Rate, you can consider purchasing Unit Trusts or Insurance/Takaful plan with the following amounts:

Option 1: Bonus Rate of 2.00% p.a. (Invest or Insure/Takaful)

If you’ve ever traveled to Malaysia, you’ll know that it’s not just a food paradise. In fact, wherever you go, you can find a myriad of souvenirs that represents Malaysia. Just in case you’re unsure where to start, this article has got you covered. Here are the 5 Best Souvenirs To Bring Home From Malaysia. Let’s start scrolling!

Top 5 Made-In-Malaysia Souvenirs From Coffee To Snacks

1. Ah Huat White Coffee

best-souvenirs-in-malaysia

The very first on our list of souvenirs to bring home from Malaysia is none other than Ah Huat White Coffee, Malaysia’s homegrown coffee manufacturer. Known as one of Malaysia’s favourite White Coffee brands with a history dating way back to our grandparent’s generation, AHWC has products that are suited for everyone. To achieve a freshly brewed coffee taste, AHWC utilizes freeze-dried and spray-dried technology on micro-ground coffee; also known as the purest form of coffee.  For coffee lovers, you can pick from the White Coffee, Kopitiam, or Kopi-O series. Not just that, AHWC also has its very own Tea Blends series which includes Teh C, Hainan Tea, Herbal Tea, and Black Sugar Milk Tea. Packed with a true taste of Malaysian heritage, Ah Huat White Coffee makes for the perfect souvenir for your friends and family.

2. Penang White Curry Noodle

best-souvenirs-in-malaysia

Next up, when in Malaysia, it goes without saying that a street food feast is mandatory. This means you’ve probably tried some of the best Malaysian street food out there like Laksa, Char Koay Teow, Curry Mee, and the list goes on. Well, what if we tell you that you can bring Malaysian street food home and make it in the comfort of your own home? That’s right, we’re talking about a packet (or 3) of Penang White Curry Noodles.

3. Tau Sar Pneah or Tambun Biscuit

best-souvenirs-in-malaysiaPhoto: sockpeng (Instagram)

Have you heard of Tau Sar Pneah? Here’s a little info, Tau Sar Pneah or Tambun Biscuit is a round-shaped pastry with a fluffy crust and on the inside; packed to the edge with mung bean fillings. Originating from Penang, this treat is a popular take-me-home souvenir for visitors as they come in snack worthy bite-sized that can be easily enjoyed anytime, anywhere.

4. Dodol

best-souvenirs-in-malaysia

Next up on our list of the Top 5 Souvenirs To Bring Home From Malaysia is a dessert confectionary known as Dodol. Despite its peculiar name, Dodol is a sweet triangular-shaped treat that many Malaysians grew up with. Essentially, the ingredients in Dodol consist of coconut milk, glutinous rice flour, and palm sugar which are all stirred continuously in a large wok to create its sticky toffee-like texture. Dodol comes in different flavours such as Pandan or even Durian.

5. Preserved or Dried Fruits

best-souvenirs-in-malaysia

The final item that makes the perfect souvenir from Malaysia is none other than preserved/dried fruits. The tropical climate in Malaysia produces various juicy, succulent fruits and let’s admit, bringing fresh fruits home after our trip is quite a hassle, and, fruit storage time is relatively short too. This is where preserved/dried fruits come into play. You can pick from all sorts of local fruits like mangoes, papayas, cempedak, and many more. Plus, you can decide if you want them preserved or dried. Besides, snacking on fruits is a healthier option too!

5 Must-Buy Made-In-Malaysia Souvenirs

And there you have it, these 5 items are all Made-In-Malaysia souvenirs that you absolutely need to bring home. If you ask us, a trip to Malaysia would not be complete without them all. Save this list so you can check off the souvenirs tab on your to-do list.
