KUALA LUMPUR: Despite recent positive economic indicators, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim reaffirmed Putrajaya’s commitment to supporting Malaysians grappling with rising living costs.
Anwar acknowledged that while Malaysia’s economy grew in the second quarter of 2024, with a reported 5.8% expansion, it does not mean that public concerns, particularly around the cost of living, are completely resolved.
