突来疫情王瑞杰为财案加班 富足储备得以应对突发状况

明日(18日)副总理兼财政部长王瑞杰将公布2020年度财政预算案,他今日发文透露,基于突如其来的武汉冠状病毒(COVID-19)疫情,使得他必须“加班工作”,而预算案中也纳入先前未有的方案;也坦言当前疫情可视之为对国人的考验。 他表示,财案的细节一般都会尽量提早定案,然而今年突如其来的武汉冠状病毒(COVID-19)疫情,使得财政部团队必须加班,跟进最新进展以及听取国人意见,并推出援助措施方案。他透露他的团队还必须牺牲上周五的情人节,一整个周末下来都在一起工作。 他透露财案中一些新措施,可能一个月前都未曾提出;也指要不是富足的储备,我国才得以采取迅速果断行动,以及得以限制能拟定稳定和援助措施,而不是试图去预测疫情的负面影响、带来的打击等等。 “我不仅指我们的财政储备,也指公务员和国人拥有的力量、适应力、同理心和机智。” 他表示,有人问道:“疫情是否对预算案带来干扰?”他表示“你可以视之为一场破坏,也可以看作是考验,促使我们国人竭尽所能,为后代勇于面对挑战。” 王瑞杰在昨日发布视频,表示政府将推出一个援助配套,协助家庭减轻生活费压力,并会在明日公布更多详情。
