KUALA LUMPUR – Budget 2022 – the first tabled under Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s watch – has earned the plaudits of political observers who described it as all-encompassing, but also pointed to the agreement with the opposition.

More than anything else, they said this is a clear reflection of how important last month’s historic memorandum of understanding (MoU) inked between the government and Pakatan Harapan (PH) is proving to become.

Speaking to The Vibes, National Professors Council senior fellow Prof Jeniri Amir said the MoU has demonstrated that it goes beyond just ensuring political stability – and if upheld, could be of extreme benefit to the rakyat and country.

“This is the way forward for democracy, that there should be negotiations and openness from the government to consider input from all quarters. They should consider whatever positive and pragmatic proposals.
