Nurse businesses back to health first, urges MEF


PETALING JAYA: The government should continue intensifying efforts to help workers ease their financial burden, as the country slowly moves towards economic recovery amid inflation and high cost of living, says the Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF).

The organisation has also urged the government not to introduce new policies and taxation that would add to the cost of doing business. Its president Datuk Dr Syed Hussain Syed Husman said 2023 is expected to be challenging economically the world over including Malaysia, and that the unity government’s revised Budget 2023 should be business-friendly.
