KOTA KINABALU: Federal spending should be stepped up to stimulate the nation's economy, says former chief minister Datuk Seri Yong Teck Lee.

"Federal spending, particularly on infrastructure projects, should be expedited to provide a vital and long-delayed stimulus to the cash economy," he said in a statement on Monday .

"This is a reality confirmed by a recent survey by independent research organisation Ilham Centre last month," he added. "It's sad that the Malaysian economy and our significant trading partner, China, have not fully recovered from the pandemic, leaving many businesses struggling to make up for their pandemic-induced losses," he said.
