"The Works Minister conveys our condolences to the families of the landslide victims. The emergency works have been stepped up with the concessionaire,” he said when winding up the committee-level debate on the Supply Bill 2022 (Budget 2022) in the Dewan Rakyat today.
The debate session was participated by 24 Members of Parliament and the Dewan Rakyat approved the operating expenditure of RM823,509,000 for the Works Ministry in Budget 2022.
