Budget 2021 to focus on four central themes


“The government believes that we can empower the spirit of unity in diversity to build entirely new foundations for our economic and social systems, to create a fairer and more wholesome future, ” Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz said in his speech telecast live at Invest Malaysia 2020 from his office in Putrajaya.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s Budget 2021, which is set to be unveiled on Nov 6, will be framed across four broad themes – caring for the people; steering the economy; sustainable living and enhancing public service delivery.

This will be part of the government’s 6R strategy under the “revitalise” stage to give the economy a jumpstart after it was trampled by the coronavirus (Covid-19).
