Unsustainable growth in country’s debt


IN Budget 2023, the total debt service charges (DSC) were estimated at RM46.1bil. As a percentage of total government expenditure, the DSC is expected to be at 15.4%.

As it is, this is already higher than the self-imposed 15% limit that Malaysia has adhered to.
