Malaysia Budget 2019: Watch the announcement live on Facebook

The Malaysia Budget 2019 announcement is taking place at 4PM today (2nd November) and this is the first budget announcement under a new administration. If you want to catch the announcement in real-time, the Ministry of Finance has started a live stream on Facebook.


The full text and related Budget 2019 materials will be made available at http://www.treasury.gov.my/ after the announcement.

A few days ago, the Ministry of Finance Malaysia had announced that you can receive Budget 2019 updates via WhatsApp. Unfortunately, their WhatsApp number is currently facing technical difficulties due to high demand and the Ministry of Finance is trying to solve the issue as soon as possible.

If the Ministry’s WhatsApp channel doesn’t work for you, you can also watch the announcement live from their Facebook page.
