Government aims to reduce national debt, says Anwar


MUAR: The government does not want to take on any more unnecessary loans as they do not wish to burden the younger generation with debt, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He added that in 2022, the country borrowed RM100bil, but this has since been reduced to RM90bil in 2023 and RM80bil in 2024.
