Malaysia just cut taxes for 300,000 businesses

Malaysia is cutting corporate taxes for around 300,000 small businesses under Budget 2027. But the maximum saving is RM6,000 a year, or RM500 a month.
SMEs employ around eight million Malaysians, so supporting them matters.

But how much difference will this tax cut actually make to business growth, jobs and wages?
