KUALA LUMPUR: Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak has criticised Budget 2020, saying it does not help the rakyat as much as previous budgets by the Barisan Nasional administration.

"I do not see (how) the Budget will make the rakyat happy, because if we look what will happen next year, the price of petrol will increase, the water tariff will also go up, and new taxes have been introduced, including the digital tax.
