BN also vowed to provide more job opportunities and maintain the unemployment rate below four percent, which is the full employment level.
Aside from policies benefiting employees, BN said they will also give a tax deduction to companies that uphold gender and ethnic diversity in their management.
BN chairperson Ahmad Zahid Hamidi launching the manifesto“We also want the issue of sexual harassment, inequality in wages, remuneration and treatment due to gender to be completely eliminated through examining the suitability of establishing a gender equality tribunal and the establishment of an anti-sexual harassment tribunal,” Zahid said in his speech tonight.
BN also has other initiatives targeted at youths such as the development of drag racing circuits with an allocation of RM20 million per year to facilitate opportunities for youth to be involved in motorsports through the right platform, as stated in their manifesto book.
