KUALA LUMPUR, MAY 25 — Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said the MADANI Government will continue the BUDI MADANI: BUDI Agri-Komoditi initiative to help small farmers, entrepreneurs and vulnerable groups facing economic pressures caused by global supply chain disruptions and rising living costs.
In a statement following the National Economic Action Council (MTEN) meeting today, Anwar said the meeting heard important presentations from the Ministry of Health (MOH) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Commodities (KPK) regarding the increasingly challenging global supply chain crisis.
He said the government understands the struggles faced by the people amid rising prices and global economic uncertainty, stressing that assistance must continue to ensure the welfare of those most affected.
“On that consideration, the Government agrees to continue the BUDI MADANI: BUDI Agri-Komoditi initiative in helping small farmers, entrepreneurs and vulnerable groups who are the backbone of the country’s economy,” he said.
Anwar added that the government is also giving serious attention to the healthcare sector, particularly in ensuring the stability of medicine supplies nationwide.
According to him, the overall supply of medicines in the country remains stable for now, but the Ministry of Health will continue monitoring stock chain challenges and price fluctuations closely to prevent the rakyat from being burdened by shortages or sudden increases in costs.
The Prime Minister stressed that the MADANI Government remains committed to safeguarding the welfare of the people despite ongoing global economic challenges.
“Whatever the challenges may come, the MADANI Government will continue to work hard, act with courtesy and ensure the welfare of the people is always the nation’s top priority,” he said.
