Pakatan to table first budget as Anwar returns to Parliament

KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The second meeting of the first term of the 14th Parliament, which is to begin on Monday (Oct 15), will see the tabling of the 2019 Budget, the first national budget prepared by the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government after winning the May 9 general election.

The tabling of the budget by Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng on Nov 2 is a much-awaited event, as the public are eager to see the “prudent budget” arrangement by the federal government, as the country faces various challenges in terms of fiscal position.
