“Taking into account global economic challenges, including the post-pandemic COVID-19 economic uncertainty and the geopolitical crisis, which have an impact on the cost of living of the people, the government should focus on the implementation of development projects that have a direct impact on the well-being of the people as outlined in the MADANI Budget 2023,” His Majesty said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
