KUALA LUMPUR: The government will not embark on mega projects that have limited impact on the majority of the people in the near future after taking into account global economic uncertainties, said Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan.
"The government’s approach is to channel spending into programmes that truly benefit the lives of the people, such as repairing schools and rural clinics, which also generate economic spillover and create business opportunities for micro, small, and medium Enterprises (MSMEs),” he said when winding up the debate on the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) for the Ministry of Finance (MoF) in the Dewan Rakyat today.
