Pemulih is a welcome stimulus, but recovery may require more


IN A recent television broadcast on Monday (June 28), the government unveiled more strategic details to the National Recovery Plan (NRP) to supplement previously announced goalposts of "exiting" the Covid-19 pandemic in four phases.

By allocating RM150bil in the form of the Pemulih package – the most extensive package to date, which is what strategic initiatives will require – the Government continues to demonstrate its commitment to prioritise the welfare of the rakyat in the difficult task of balancing lives and livelihoods while fighting the Covid-19 pandemic.
