How is the govt going to fund subsidies, asks Shafie

PETALING JAYA: Warisan president Shafie Apdal has questioned how Putrajaya will fund its subsidies for consumer necessities, which are projected to reach an all-time high of RM77.3 billion this year.

Shafie said this was higher than the country’s entire national development expenditure of RM76.6 billion.

“Where do we get the money for this?” asked the former Sabah chief minister in a statement.
