Financial implications for Employees Provident Fund contributors who have obtained personal financing under the EPF Account 2 Support Facility initiative but are unable to repay their loans are expected to be the focus of today’s Dewan Rakyat sitting.
According to the order paper on Parliament’s official website, Radzi Jidin (PN-Putrajaya) will raise the matter during the question-and-answer session.
Jimmy Puah Wee Tse (PH-Tebrau) meanwhile will ask the tourism, arts and culture minister to state the efforts to ensure that Malaysian traditional dishes such as nasi lemak, bak kut teh and laksa are recognised as national dishes and not claimed as national dishes of other countries.
Meanwhile, Mumtaz Md Nawi (PN-Tumpat) will ask the foreign minister about short- and long-term support and initiatives by Wisma Putra for the government of Afghanistan, particularly in empowering the potential and involvement of women and children in that country.
After the session, the Parliament sitting will continue with the debate on the Auditor-General’s Report 2021 Series 2 which was already debated by 13 MPs yesterday.
The Malaysian Cooperative Commission (Amendment) Bill 2023 is also expected to be tabled for a second reading.
This Dewan Rakyat sitting will continue until June 16.
