IPOH: The government will first ensure there is sufficient supply of necessities before it introduces any economic stimulus package to deal with the impact from the ongoing crisis in the Middle East, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
"It is important that we want to ensure that all necessary items are available, including fuel, cooking oil, fish, flour, sugar, meat chicken and salt.
"Then we could try to control other things that we can like prices," the Prime Minister said in a press conference after opening the Program Madani Rakyat at Sultan Azlan Shah Roundabout in Meru Raya here on Saturday (April 4).
"We will then see if we allow some leeway for businesses by reducing tariffs, taxes or payment to lessen the burden of the people.
"There were some who suggested postponing (the implementation of) e-invoicing to lessen the burden on the people, we will look at this as well," he added.
