Nov 27, 2020, 12:52 AM

The government of Muhyiddin Yassin won a crucial victory today as the Dewan Rakyat greenlit a draft Budget 2021. After 13 days of debate, the budget bill moved past the 'Policy Stage' following a voice vote of lawmakers. There was, however, an attempt to call for 'bloc voting', which would've meant that every MP’s vote would be counted. But it did not get sufficient support from 15 MPs, only 13. Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to Fahmi Fadzil, Lembah Pantai MP and PKR Communications Director.
