He said the measures will not only provide financing support but will also improve the business ecosystem in general.

“I am confident that Malaysia will continue to remain a destination of choice for foreign and domestic investors,” he said in a statement today.

The 2021 budget was presented by Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz in Parliament today.

The prime minister said efforts to ensure the country’s economic resilience can be strengthened is also one of the main focus of the government in the budget.

The government, he said, is committed to implementing the expansionary budget, while continuing to maintain fiscal discipline.
