KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 8 – MCA hopes the second economic stimulus package, which is being fine tuned by the government, will be able to strengthen the national economy for the benefit of the people and the business fraternity.
“If we are able the stimulate the economy, we certainly can preserve existing jobs and create new job opportunities,” MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat told reporters yesterday after attending a Chinese New year gathering organised by the Selangor Buddhist Association here.
According to reports, the second stimulus package will be announced this month or at the latest by March. The first stimulus package of RM7 billion was announced last November.
Ong, who is also Transport Minister, said a stable economy would also bring about stability in national politics. – Bernama
