Experts: Good governance a must to plug leakages

PETALING JAYA: With the government’s emphasis on plugging leakages, economists say good governance must be enhanced to ensure the implementation of Budget 2023 is free from corruption and wastage.

Budget 2023, the largest in Malaysian history with an allocation of RM388.1bil, comes with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s repeated commitments to curb leakage, but economists say it all lies in the execution.
