He lamented that in previous years, budget implementation in the state is rated poor, such situation Ahmad stressed that ?the 8th Assembly is bent to improved for betterment of the state.

While declaring open the budget defence of the Ministries of Finance, Planning, Works, Bureau of Statistics and Fiscal Responsibility Commission, Ahmad noted that in view of the present situation, the state must also be conservative about its earnings.
