    "content": "The revenue and expenditure proposals have come during a transition period where a big shift is expected in policy, goals and programmes of the Government. It is worth noting that the policies which are mentioned or outlined in this Budget are still anchored in the Medium-Term Three which will end in June this year. Further, the Government still prioritises the Big Four Agenda, especially the Universal Health Coverage (UHC), which we hope that the subsequent Governments will build on. My critical review of the Budget is that the country is still struggling economically. We are still facing the shocks from the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing Russia and Ukraine conflict. The growth in the economy worldwide is also not promising. The domestic economy performance was better last year at a rate of 7.5 per cent. However, we are still faced uncertainties. We continue to receive unfavourable weather conditions. Most parts of the country are affected by low crop production."
