Allocations based on needs, not race, PM Anwar tells Dewan Negara


KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has stressed that allocations given to any community should not be polemic as all development initiatives under the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) are implemented fairly and equitably.

Tabling the 13MP motion at the Dewan Negara on Monday (Aug 25), Anwar said the Madani government remains committed to ensuring that all groups, including Malays, Chinese, Indians, Bumiputera of Sabah and Sarawak, Orang Asli, women, Persons with Disabilities (PWD), and youth, receive benefits according to their needs.
