The opposition is prepared to support a government bill to facilitate a RM45 billion fiscal injection for Covid-19 economic aid only if the amount is doubled to RM90 billion.

Former finance minister Lim Guan Eng (Harapan-Bagan) said this is because RM45 billion is insufficient to help the affected public and businesses.
