Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, declaring that every ringgit of public funds counts, says no new official car will be bought for his use, and no renovations will be carried out at his office.

Wastage must be avoided in his administration – a new culture he wished to impart, he said.


“Think of what you can save – RM100, RM1000, RM10,000 – which can be returned to the poor. I started with a commitment not to take a salary, but what’s important is not to waste what funds we have,” he said.

“This is a message to all department leaders to remember that in the current situation we should start a new culture. Don’t use government money for our own facilities,” he said.


Anwar who was met by reporters after a thanksgiving ceremony at the Ashabus Solihin mosque in Sungai Long, Kajang, said all government money would be used in the best way to avoid the wastage that had often happened in previous governments.

He said he would hold a meeting with government departments and agencies in Putrajaya tomorrow that would focus on lowering the rising cost of living. He is scheduled to attend a special meeting of the national livelihood action council.

Anwar had previously announced that tackling the cost of living would be his first priority. He has also stated that he would not accept the prime minister’s salary and would only accept the allowance paid to MPs. Anwar is MP for Tambun.
What he doing is correct partly next year 2023 is really " uncertain "

whereas Our GREEDY PAP squeeze us from GST Hike MORE TAXES to feed themselves and top up their wastage taxing the Public funds.

It's still a good move as it sends a strong signal to investors and people that it's prudent with spending.

He still has his MP's salary.  Likewise we should get rid of our mayors' exorbitant salaries afterall they are already MPs.
No wastage and frivolous spending by the ministries. That is the right spirit of gov service to the country. He really put pap to shame.

He is not encouraging not to spend but spend wisely. Saving by not spending taxpayers money wastefully.

Malaysian MPs are also entitled to a host of other allowances and claims. Which include:
  • Meeting allowances
  • Entertainment allowances
  • Special payment allowances
  • Monthly travelling allowances
  • Driver allowances
  • Meal allowances
    Daily living allowances

Apart from pay and above...still can claim so many types of funds etc.

No wonder so many fighting so hard to be a  Malaysian MP.
