WHAT our economy needs most right now are good old-fashioned confidence and certainty. Unfortunately, it is not as if you can get out there and buy some. The key is to introduce measures to increase economic activities and consumer spending. 

It is no surprise then that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who is also finance minister, revealed earlier this month that the government might go on another round of pump-priming to boost the economy. It has been reported subsequently that the details will be announced in March.
