Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim encourages small entrepreneurs to propose aid recipients to ensure effective distribution and expansion of businesses in Budget 2027.

Anwar emphasises the role of small stalls in employment generation and appreciates their hard work with government aid, which boosts local income.

The government aims to attract foreign investments without disrupting local small businesses while promoting sectors like AI, computing, and semiconductors for economic growth.

ALOR SETAR, Sept 26 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is allowing small entrepreneurs in every village to propose aid recipients following the government’s plan to increase the specific allocation for the group in Budget 2027.

He said the suggestions were crucial to ensure the aid reaches small traders who genuinely need it and have the potential to expand their businesses.

“I want to give small traders in every village the opportunity to suggest if there are other friends who should be given a chance... because in our Budget next month, God willing, I want to increase the allocation for these entrepreneurs,” he said when officiating the Kedah Usahawan Bangkit scheme at the Federal Government Administration Complex in Anak Bukit here yesterday.

Anwar said many stalls run by small entrepreneurs also provided employment, thereby helping to generate income for the local community.

“When we give aid to these small entrepreneurs, even if it is small, they work hard and truly appreciate the assistance given,” he added.

He said the Implementation Coordination Unit (ICU) would determine the best method to assist needy small entrepreneurs after receiving the proposals.

About 1,500 entrepreneurs and petty traders in Kedah gathered at yesterday’s event to support the Madani Government’s efforts in strengthening the people’s economy.

Through the Usahawan Bangkit scheme, the government provides business equipment aid tailored to the entrepreneurs’ needs to increase their business capacity and productivity.

Meanwhile, Anwar said the government would continue to attract major foreign investments to boost the country’s economy, while ensuring the entry of foreign companies does not affect local enterprises, especially small entrepreneurs.

“Although I bring in foreign investments, I do not disrupt small entrepreneurs...I don’t go overseas for no reason,” he said.

He said investments by major companies, including in artificial intelligence (AI), computing and semiconductors, could stimulate the country’s economic growth and offer more job opportunities for the people.

Anwar also cited the development of medical technology in China, which is currently capable of treating the blind and restoring their sight.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister stressed that the government was continuously working to alleviate the people’s burden, particularly regarding the rising cost of goods. — Bernama

安瓦尔·易卜拉欣总理鼓励小企业家在 2027 年财政预算案中提出援助对象建议，以确保有效分配资金并扩大业务规模。

安华强调了小摊贩在创造就业机会方面的作用，并赞赏他们在政府援助下所做的辛勤工作，这提高了当地收入。

政府的目标是在不扰乱当地小企业的情况下吸引外国投资，同时促进人工智能、计算机和半导体等行业的发展，以促进经济增长。

亚罗士打，9月26日讯——首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣允许每个村庄的小企业家提名援助对象，此前政府计划在2027年财政预算案中增加对该群体的专项拨款。

他表示，这些建议至关重要，可以确保援助真正惠及那些需要帮助且有潜力扩大业务的小商户。

“我想让每个村庄的小商贩都有机会推荐其他应该获得机会的朋友……因为如果上帝保佑，我希望在下个月的预算中增加对这些企业家的拨款，”他昨天在阿纳武吉联邦政府行政大楼为吉打州创业者计划揭幕时说道。

安华表示，许多由小企业家经营的摊位也提供了就业机会，从而帮助当地社区创造收入。

“当我们向这些小企业主提供援助时，即使援助金额不大，他们也会努力工作，并真心感谢我们给予的帮助，”他补充道。

他表示，实施协调小组（ICU）将在收到提案后，确定帮助有需要的小企业家的最佳方法。
