PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Najib Razak says he expects today’s budget to defy the 3% deficit, adding that the present government is desperate to regain support by announcing a string of goodies.

“I predict Budget 2020 will not be within the 3% deficit prediction last year. It’s likely the deficit will be between 3.2% and 3.4%,” said the former finance minister, adding that this was due to measures by the government to regain public support.
