Budget must be re-examined, says Anwar

PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (pic) has called out comments made by the Finance Minister over the passing of Perikatan Nasional’s Budget 2021.

The Opposition leader said Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz’s comments that the government would not be able to carry out its commitments including paying civil servants’ salaries and assistance for frontliners fighting against Covid-19 if the Budget is not approved by the Dewan Rakyat was “bland and threatening.”
