AS the dust begins to settle following last Friday’s unveiling of Budget 2010, many small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are not “overly excited” about the measures announced by the Government. In fact, SMI Association president Chua Tiam Wee says most of the SMEs expected much more from the budget.
“Although the budget was wide in coverage, it was quite plain,” he told StarBizWeek. He says most of the measures for economic recovery have already been announced in the so-called mini budget in March, and these are still being implemented.
