IN my two-hour speech during the tabling of Budget 2022 in the Dewan Rakyat on Oct 29, I made nearly 30 references to Keluarga Malaysia. The frequency of this phrase in one of Parliament’s most important speeches demonstrates how central this theme is to Budget 2022.

Keluarga Malaysia is the brainchild of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob. It is also a principle that I wholeheartedly support. It refers to the sense of inclusiveness and togetherness that has held this country’s colourful fabric together since even before Independence.
