Putrajaya's Parks and Sports Facilities 2026: The Netball Court Is Free, a Football Field on a Holiday Night Is RM200
Perbadanan Putrajaya publishes an hourly rate card for its Taman Pancarona sports complex, and it settles a question most Klang Valley councils never answer in public. A sepak takraw court is RM2 an hour in daylight. A netball field is free, all day, every day, with no night rate at all because there are no lights. A football field is RM70 in the day, RM140 at night and RM200 on a public holiday night, which is nearly three times the daytime price. We also read the council's own opening-hours page for each park on 22 September 2026: every Perbadanan Putrajaya park closes on Monday for maintenance, the rental counters shut for lunch even while the parks stay open, and one park that Google has no venue record for at all sells a guided trail from RM15. Behind the same council's park pages sits a second, quieter rate card: guided park visits from RM10 a head.
Unclaimed Money in Malaysia 2026: How to Check Yours Free on eGUMIS, and the Agents, Emails and Apps to Ignore
More than RM13 billion of unclaimed money was sitting with the Registrar of Unclaimed Moneys as at January 2026, and checking whether any of it is yours costs nothing and takes about a minute. The Accountant General's Department runs the eGUMIS portal, you search by identification number, and the Registrar charges no fee, sets no minimum amount and imposes no deadline. Two things are worth knowing right now. First, the Ministry of Finance and the Registrar have never appointed any individual, firm or company as an agent for unclaimed money claims, so anyone offering to recover yours for a cut is not authorised by them. Second, the Registrar has never sent a notification email to the public either: if a message tells you that you have money waiting, it did not come from the department, whatever the letterhead says.
KLIA Transit to Putrajaya: What a Return Costs Now the Merdeka RM14 Fare Is Gone
ERL's Merdeka RTN fare, which halved KLIA Transit return tickets into Putrajaya & Cyberjaya, expired after 31 August 2026. We re-priced KL Sentral to Putrajaya on ERL's own booking engine on 13 October 2026, for a 21 October same-day return: RM19.60 with a CIMB Visa Debit card and code CIMB30R, RM25.20 for the standard online return, against RM28.00 at the gate. From Bandar Tasik Selatan it is RM11.20 and RM14.40. A MyKad Category A concession reaches the same RM19.60 with no bank card, at 30% off one-way fares. The Visa and Maybank card deals are KLIA Ekspres only, and the Group Saver and Family Package renewed on 5 October still do not cover Putrajaya. No Deepavali or year-end fare has been published.
