Johan: From the percentage value, Malaysia’s stimulus packages exceed many countries in terms of the scope and size. MALAYSIA’s Covid-19 stimulus packages contribute more than 20% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), which is comparable to other developed countries and higher than regional developing countries, a comparative analysis of government assistance reveals. This shows that the measures the Malaysian government has implemented are in line with what have been implemented by other countries, says National Budget Office director Datuk Johan Mahmood Merican in an online interview on Thursday. Since the Covid-19 pandemic was declared last year, the government has launched eight aid packages worth RM530bil to address the health crisis. The latest stimulus package, Pemulih, is worth RM150bil and was unveiled on June 28, 2021, to further mitigate the economic impact of the pandemic.
