Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim says proactive measures will be taken to maintain economic resilience amid West Asia conflict and global pressures.
KUALA LUMPUR: The government will implement several proactive and thorough early intervention measures to maintain the country’s economic resilience.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said this follows an examination of the latest geopolitical developments and global economic pressures at a National Economic Action Council meeting.
He said the government is mobilising efforts to ensure the security of energy supply. This includes diversifying sources and exploring alternative routes to reduce dependence on risky passages like the Strait of Hormuz.
“Although still in the festive Aidilfitri atmosphere, the people’s well-being, particularly the cost of living, remains the MADANI Government’s priority,” he posted on Facebook.
Anwar, who is also Finance Minister, said the government will continue to closely monitor the conflict situation in West Asia. Information will be channelled directly to the public.
In facing these challenges, the Prime Minister said calmness, discipline and a spirit of togetherness were crucial. These qualities are needed to ensure the country remains stable and resilient.
