(Reuters) – Malaysia’s Mahathir Mohamad said on Wednesday, two days after he quit as premier, that an economic stimulus package will be announced soon.
A post on Mahathir’s official Twitter account said he had met with finance ministry officials on Wednesday to discuss the stimulus measures.
Mahathir had been due to unveil a stimulus package on Thursday to soften the economic fallout from a coronavirus outbreak, but it was postponed to an unspecified date shortly after his resignation on Monday.
