Policies and Key Events
The third Abdullah cabinet operated during a period of significant political and economic instability. Following the 2008 general election, the government faced a reduced parliamentary majority, which led to a series of political challenges. The cabinet's term was marked by growing public discontent and a number of political defections, which threatened the stability of the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition.[1]
Economically, the government had to navigate the global financial crisis of 2008. In response, it introduced a series of economic stimulus packages to stabilize the national economy and maintain public confidence. Ultimately, mounting pressure from within the ruling coalition led to Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi's decision to resign, which brought an end to his cabinet's term less than a year after its formation.[2]
