Federal spending 2020
What the Malaysian federal government actually spent in 2020, from the audited federal financial statements. Every figure links to the page it was read from. How these numbers are checked.
The 2020 operating figures were read by OCR.
The published statement draws these tables without a text layer, so every amount was read from the page. Each printed total equals the sum of its rows or is a misprint confirmed on the page. Programme and activity names are OCR readings. How this was done
Operating is the printed operating total of RM 225.07 bn (JANM 2020, p. 190) less the RM 474.71 m transfer to the Development Fund (JANM 2020, p. 112). That fund pays for development spending, so counting the transfer as well would count the same money twice. Development is the printed development total (JANM 2020, p. 231). The COVID-19 Fund (Kumpulan Wang COVID-19) was financed outside the operating account, so its spending adds to the other two (JANM 2020, p. 235). Each part is checked against data.gov.my's published figures; see the methodology.
