PASIR GUDANG – The Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry will allow the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) or police to carry out the appropriate investigation into the misappropriation of diesel subsidies of about RM10 billion.
Its minister Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub said such action is necessary if an internal investigation carried out by the ministry reveals that there has been a breach in the procedures during the past.
“Normally, the ministry will carry out an internal investigation first because we have an unit that will audit and investigate such offences. However, if there is a serious offence, we have no problem in referring the case to police or MACC.
“We will offer our full cooperation to ensure such misappropriation does not occur. This is because we do not want the issue to prolong when the budget is tabled in the future.

SEVERAL MPs from the Opposition Perikatan Nasional (PN) have been heavily criticising the government’s food programme and have made Hansard history by linking it to various illnesses.
But it appears that the idea behind the Menu Rahmah is catching on with the population and is a hit for some restaurants.
A Facebook user recently posted their version of the Menu Rahmah, saying that it is a total success for their business.

| Budget 2023 unlikely to influence voters for upcoming state polls: analysts |

KUALA LUMPUR – Neither the unity government led by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim nor the opposition should take Budget 2023 as an opportunity to rest on its laurels for the upcoming elections in six states, said political analysts.
Noting that voters are unlikely to be swayed from their political stance by the offerings or lack thereof in the budget, they also said Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Anwar and his administration should remain on their toes going into the state elections.
The heads of the governments of Selangor, Negri Sembilan, Penang, Kedah, Kelantan, and Terengganu had recently agreed to consider dissolving their respective state assemblies in the last two weeks of June.
For National Council of Professors senior fellow Prof Jeniri Amir, the budget will probably be understood as a presentation of how Putrajaya intends to aid citizens instead of a showy display of election goodies.
“The focus of the budget is on actions (set to be taken by the government) on how to revive the economy after the Covid-19 pandemic, with an emphasis on reducing the burden faced by the people because of an economic crisis.

ECONOMY Minister Rafizi Ramli said the government’s people’s income initiative (IPR) to be launched tomorrow (Feb 26), will ensure a stable food supply and low prices that can be enjoyed by various layers of society.
As part of this initiative, the government will open up 800 acres of government land for agricultural purposes, providing opportunities for capital support and training.
The IPR aims to help the poor increase their income potential and improve their household earning capacity, Prime Minister (PM) Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said during his Budget 2023 presentation.
“Major agricultural commodities such as palm oil which have given export value with encouraging results will be infused with new agricultural products to ensure that the agricultural sector provides sustainable input towards National Food Security,” said Rafizi in a statement.

KUALA LUMPUR – Retired servicemen group National Patriot Association (Patriot) has lauded Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s fight against systematic corruption, urging all Malaysians, regardless of their political affiliation, to throw their support behind Anwar’s “determined efforts”.
Pointing to Anwar’s order for authorities to continue investigating those named in the 2021 Pandora Papers exposé, Patriot president Datuk Mohamed Arshad Raji said that Malaysians have a “patriotic will” to bring high-profile and corrupt individuals to light.
“The time has finally come for all such individuals who had benefited from being close associates and cronies of our past political masters, or are politicians still in power, to now face the full brunt of the law.
“Viva Malaysia. The war has begun. It is time to enlist ourselves to join the prime minister in this mother of all battles.
