Federal spending 2024
What the Malaysian federal government actually spent in 2024, from the audited federal financial statements. Every figure links to the page it was read from. How these numbers are checked.
Operating is the printed operating total of RM 324.62 bn (JANM 2024, p. 189) less the RM 3.11 bn transfer to the Development Fund (JANM 2024, p. 119). 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 2024, p. 227). Each part is checked against data.gov.my's published figures; see the methodology.
