Exco hopes for family-oriented state budget

By Sofia Nasir

SUBANG JAYA, Nov 9 — State executive councillor for women empowerment and social welfare Anfaal Saari said she hopes the upcoming 2025 Selangor State Budget will focus on the development of family institutions.

Describing 2025 as the year of family empowerment, she said the Selangor Care Economy Policy, set to be approved, will also be part of the initiatives in the upcoming budget.

“We view 2025 as the year of family empowerment. The Selangor Care Economy Policy, which will be approved at the next assembly session, should be taken into account in the state budget, which will strengthen these two factors,” Anfaal said.

She was speaking to the press after officiating the closing ceremony of the 2024 Women’s Cooperative Symposium at Summit USJ Hotel yesterday.

Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari is scheduled to present the state budget on Friday (November 15) at 3pm in the Annex Building of the Selangor State Legislative Assembly.

The budget report can be followed on SelangorKini’s portal, the Selangor Journal, and the SelangorKini editions in Mandarin and Tamil.

The public can also watch the live broadcast on Selangor TV and Media Selangor’s Facebook page.

The presentation will also be broadcast on Media Selangor’s social media platforms, including Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), Telegram, and TikTok, as well as on MYTV MANA-MANA.
