The session was held during Muhyiddin’s visit to the Economic Stimulus Implementation and Coordination Unit Between National Agencies at the Finance Ministry here, to get a closer look at its operation as well as the implementation status of measures under the Economic Stimulus Package 2020, Prihatin and National Economic Recovery Plan totalling RM295 billion.
Muhyiddin had jokingly asked M. Sugu, 29, and his wife S.Pavithra, 28: “When will you treat me for mutton briyani?” Rosnizam Ishak, 43, said he had leveraged on the BPN fund to start selling frozen marinated mutton to earn a living after their restaurant, which has been operating since 2015, was badly affected during the MCO and had to close.
A taxi driver in the Klang Valley, Ahmad Rusdi Mat Daud said the one-off assistance of RM600 for taxi drivers and BPN of RM1,600 has helped cushion the MCO impact on his family.Another recipient who joined today’s session with the prime minister was Pajan Singh Kirpal Singh, 55, who owns a budget hotel in Kuantan, Pahang, and had received the wage subsidy and bank loan moratorium.
