“In those positions, they take jobs away from qualified professionals including Malay corporate leaders while significantly increasing their personal earnings. Yesterday, Minister in Prime Minister’s Department in charge of Economy, Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed announced the revised PLI which increased the numbers of hardcore poor in the country by a whopping five percentage points to 5.6 per cent or 405,441 households from 0.4 per cent or 24,700 households in 2016.

He said better preparation should be underfoot as many experts including United Nations Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, Philip Alston and Professor Fatimah Kari of University of Malaya have already done reports about poverty among Malaysians. Anwar said that under PH, there was some effort by the government to revise its methodology to achieve a real understanding of the extent of poverty.
