Feels like just yesterday that we welcomed the year 2018 and now 2019 is not far away!
As we enter the month of November, Malaysians are looking forward to one important event, which is the tabling of next year’s budget. The Budget 2019 will be tabled on Friday (2 November 2018) by our Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng and certainly, every Malaysian would like to know the details of the budget once it’s revealed.
FYI, the 2019 Budget will be tabled from 4pm onwards. Keep your eyes peeled for it!
Therefore, the Ministry of Finance (MoF) has come up with a way to provide us with the latest information on Budget 2019. They announced through Facebook that you can get the latest updates via their official WhatsApp number. How cool is that?
All you have to do is send “Hello MOF” to +6011-1000 3001 to get the quickest and most accurate information, which will come straight from the Ministry of Finance.
Apart from that, you can also use this link that will bring you directly to their WhatsApp channel. Do keep in mind, this is the official number of MoF which will be used specifically for WhatsApp only.
Here’s what you will receive after you have either messaged them or clicked on the aforementioned link:
Well, isn’t this a great initiative! We will have accurate information on the 2019 Budget immediately and we need not worry about missing the live telecast of the budget. Yay!
