Budget 2025: Breaking Down Health Allocations

For an analysis of the healthcare allocations in next year’s budget, we have Dr Muralli Munisamy, Managing Director of the National Cancer Society of Malaysia, and Dr Amjad Rabi, a social and human security economist. We'll also be taking a look at the longer-term reforms needed for health financing, beyond the annual national budgeting cycle.
