2018 State Budget: Encouraging Investment And Infrastructure For Growth And Equality   With Budget 2018 themed “Infrastructure for Growth and Equality”, we believe the Government is maintaining its agenda in boosting infrastructure for the sake of its people, while improving social welfare. Nevertheless, the fiscal deficit will be contained due to enhanced revenue performance linked to economic growth and tax reforms. The recently approved 2018 Budget shows that the Government’s measures and incentives are focused on the following: 1. Strengthening the quality of spending; 2. Optimisation and reform in state revenue; 3. Financing sustainability.     Economist:  Rizki Fajar| +6221 2970 7065
