KUALA LUMPUR — The Madani Government has underscored its commitment to balancing national development with the welfare of its citizens, prioritising quality of life for all and fortifying economic resilience in the 2026 national budget.

The RM470 billion Budget 2026, themed Belanjawan Madani Keempat: Belanjawan Rakyat (Fourth MADANI Budget: A Budget for the People), aims to drive economic growth while ensuring a fairer distribution of wealth among all Malaysians.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said that the budget reflects the government’s decision to embark on comprehensive national rejuvenation and reform.

“Approaching three years under the Madani administration, we have implemented bold and thorough reforms that are now beginning to yield meaningful results, particularly in raising the ceiling of economic growth and lifting the floor of public well-being,” he said while tabling the budget in the Dewan Rakyat today.

Budget 2026 marks the fourth budget under Anwar’s Madani Government and the first under the 13th Malaysia Plan (RMK13), establishing a critical framework for the country’s development agenda over the next five years. – October 10, 2025
