KUANTAN: Natural disasters, especially floods that hit the country last year, will be the guide of the Finance Ministry (MOF) in formulating a more holistic budget, says Deputy Finance Minister I Datuk Mohd Shahar Abdullah.

He said, therefore, through engagement sessions with the Fire and Rescue Department , it was found helpful to the Ministry in providing better allocations, such as the acquisition of assets and infrastructure.

"From the input, we see what can be improved, however, it depends on the country's financial position at that time and the current needs," he told reporters at the JBPM Honourary Rank Awarding ceremony here on Monday . Also receiving the rank of Deputy Fire Commissioner were Pahang State Financial Officer Datuk Nazri Abu Bakar, Pahang Rural Development and Orang Asli Affairs Committee chairman Datuk Abd Aziz Mat Kiram and the state Felda, Cooperatives, Entrepreneurs and Consumer Affairs Committee chairman Datuk Nazri Ngah.
