On 5 June 2020, our honorable Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, has launched the National Economic Recovery Plan (“NERP”) worth RM35 billion.  Bearing the theme of “Building the Economy Together”, the NERP aims to aid Malaysia’s economic recovery through empowering the people, propelling businesses and stimulating the economy.

Various measures are proposed under the NERP.  These include incentives which are focused on keeping people employed and promoting employment, incentivising technology adoption and digitalisation, assisting Micro Enterprises and Small and Medium Enterprises, reviving targeted sectors of the economy, attracting foreign investments as well as assisting businesses faced with cash flow issues to sustain their business operations and gradually enhance productivity amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.

We are pleased to provide the highlights of the proposed key measures that are outlined in the booklet published by the Ministry of Finance and announced in the Speech by the Prime Minister for your attention.
