He also sought clarification on both current and upcoming initiatives designed to reinforce the implementation of the MADANI Economic Policy to ensure it fully achieves its intended goals.

Datuk Mohd Isam Mohd Isa (BN–Tampin) also directed a question to the Prime Minister, requesting updated figures on seized proceeds and penalties collected by enforcement agencies. He further asked about measures taken to strengthen enforcement efforts and prevent revenue leakages that continue to undermine the national economy.
