GEORGE TOWN, Aug 28 — The Pulau Pinang Muslim Entrepreneurs Organisation (USAHAWAN) hopes the Ministry of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives (MEDAC) and its new minister Tan Sri Noh Omar will hold a dialogue with entrepreneurs to get a better idea of their problems amid the pandemic.
USAHAWAN president Datuk Muhamad Farid Saad said the input will help MEDAC implement an action plan to help micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) which have been hit hard by the impact of COVID-19.
“The input coming from the views of entrepreneurs is necessary for the formulation of a practical policy, instead of a fancy-looking policy. It will help with the preparation of a stronger Budget 2022 that can help Bumiputera entrepreneurs who are in distress in every way, in both life and livelihood,” he said in a statement.
