For members residing in Klang Valley, you can collect your royalty cheques and statements from MACP’s office. After two weeks from this date, all uncollected cheques, will be mailed to you. Cheques for outstation members will be mailed out within a week.
Every year, we receive a lot of returned mails or members complaining that they have not received their cheques due to invalid address or missing in post. Members are advised to inform MACP immediately of changes in addresses and contact numbers to avoid any delay in payment. A penalty of RM50.00 is imposed for reissuance of such cheques.
Members are also encouraged to ask provide us with your bank a/c no. for us to bank-in directly into your account at a service fee of RM15.00.
This year, 2,101 (LY : 1,940) members out of 2,557 members will be receiving their royalties. A sum of RM17.4 million is distributed, of which 43% goes to writers and the balance to publisher members.
