PETALING JAYA: A form of understanding can be formed between ruling and opposition MPs to ensure the 2021 budget is passed, promises Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
In a live broadcast on Saturday (October 31), Muhyiddin urged all MPs to put aside political differences to pass the 2021 Budget for the good of the people and the country.
“A form of understanding can be created between members of parliament to allow the 2021 budget to be passed with the support of the government and opposition parliamentarians.
“I hope that all MPs can put aside their political differences to ensure that the 2021 budget is passed for the good of the people and the country.
“I give my word that the Perikatan Nasional government will continue to find the best way to manage this great crisis that we now face. Our goal is only one, which is to win in our fight against Covid-19 and guarantee the safety and well-being of the people.
“In managing the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, the government is doing everything possible to avoid the worst effects on the country’s economy that can negatively affect the economy of the people.
“I know that many are suffering due to downsizing and loss of income caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Many companies had to close. More than 800,000 people have lost their jobs. I listen to their pleas.
“The government will present the 2021 Budget at Dewan Rakyat on November 6, with various allocations for government agencies, assistance for people and incentives for the business sector to help them face the pandemic and restore the economy.
“God willing, in the Budget to be presented, the government will announce initiatives that will ease the burden on the people during this difficult time,” Muhyiddin said.
