PM EXCITED TO RECEIVE GOOD RESPONSE FOR BUDGET SUGGESTIONS

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 10 (Bernama) -- Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said
Friday that he was very excited to find more than 400 comments and e-mails in
his 1Malaysia blog in response to his call for suggestions from Malaysians on
this year's national budget.

The Prime Minister said that after a productive trip to France, it was
heart-warming to see the zeal of the Malaysian people "as they employed their
civic duty and patriotism to provide input on the national budget".

"I have already read through some of the suggestions to determine which can
be considered to be inserted into the budget or into our policies," said Najib,
who is also the Finance Minister

"To all of you who have sent me these ideas, thank you again. I will soon be
discussing these with the Ministry of Finance, and will report back through the
1Malaysia blog how we were able to incorporate your suggestions," he said in his
blog.
