KUALA LUMPUR: The ability to have in-depth understanding of banking and the financial sector has given a shot in the arm for Finance Ministry to implement various initiatives including the six-month blanket moratorium for the rakyat’s benefit, says Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz.
The Finance Minister said despite the initial backbites during the early days of his appointment when people said he would care more for the finance sector due to his position as a former banker, what has happened is the other way round.
