"We want all to benefit so that we can prosper together and all are provided for, from the hardcore poor to the B40 group and M40, which previously complained about being left out. In the budget (tabled) yesterday, various incentives are provided for the M40.

"Apart from this, it also provides aid to farmers, fishermen, rubber smallholders, traders, micro, small and medium enterprises, women, youths and senior citizens,” he said, adding that the budget did not leave out any sector.

Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz tabled the budget amounting to RM372.3 billion that was inspired in part by Keluarga Malaysia (the Malaysian Family) and aims to be "responsive, responsible and reformist”.

Earlier, Ismail Sabri spent about two hours at the programme, mingling with visitors and partaking in traditional Negeri Sembilan food like "daging masak lompap” and "masak lemak cili api”.

Some 20,000 people attended the programme at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan (SMK) Palong 7, organised in conjunction with the three-day Jelajah AKM which began yesterday. - BERNAMA
