Govt to begin Budget 2026 consultations this Thursday
KUALA LUMPUR: The government will kick off its Budget 2026 consultation session this Thursday to collect feedback from various stakeholders, said Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil. He said the consultation session will run until the final draft of the national budget is completed and aims to gather as much input as possible to ensure that Budget 2026 reflects the aspirations of both the people and the private sector. 'This consultation session is part of our effort to hear from multiple parties about their expectations and concerns regarding the content of Budget 2026,' he said after delivering a keynote address at the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) Nexus Forum (CNF25) today. Also present was Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh. Fahmi explained that Budget 2026 will take into account ongoing initiatives, existing policies, as well as current geopolitical conditions and economic challenges. He said the budget will also align with the priorities outlined in the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) unveiled by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim last week. One of the key focus areas of the budget, Fahmi noted, will be on micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which are vital to the national economy and play a major role in job creation. 'MSMEs are the lifeblood of our economy, contributing roughly 70 per cent of employment for Malaysians. It's therefore essential that the government understands the issues they face,' he said. According to the Parliamentary Calendar, Budget 2026 is scheduled to be tabled in the Dewan Rakyat on Oct 10. Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan previously stated that Budget 2026, in line with the 13MP, will be pragmatic and practical, aimed at sustaining national progress, strengthening the economy amid global uncertainty, and building a more equitable and just society. - Bernama

Malaysia defends key policies in US trade talks, says PM Anwar
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia was among the few countries that stood firm on protecting key national policies during trade negotiations with the United States (US), Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim told Parliament on Tuesday. Anwar said Malaysia rejected several US demands, including challenges to the country's pro-Bumiputera policy, an affirmative action programme that benefits the majority ethnic Malays and other indigenous communities. 'We still managed to secure a 19 per cent tariff rate. Most importantly, we defended the Bumiputera policy, which the US considers discriminatory and contrary to international trade principles. 'But we stood firm, Malaysia must uphold this policy, and in the end, it was accepted,' he said during ministerial question time in the Dewan Rakyat. Anwar said that while Malaysia maintained its position on non-negotiable issues, it took a pragmatic stance on others, particularly those involving trade mechanisms such as import and export regulations. 'I didn't want to risk tariff rates of 25 per cent or even 40 per cent. Malaysia is a trading nation, and the US is one of our major trade partners. It's easy to score symbolic victories at home, but the country could suffer and hundreds of thousands of people would feel the impact. As Prime Minister, I have to protect the people's interests,' he said. He added that the government was willing to make concessions where possible, not only with the US, but also with other trading partners, including China. - Bernama
