KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said policies and initiatives which he will announce on Monday when presenting the 12th Malaysia Plan Mid-Term Review (12MP MTR) in the Dewan Rakyat were framed not only based on the thoughts of ministries.
The prime minister said these policies and initiatives were also guided by the concerns, needs and priorities of the people, business community and all states.
“I am confident that the 12MP MTR can drive a more balanced and stable growth for Malaysia in the future,” he said in a Facebook post last night.
He said the 12MP MTR was yet another action by the government to realise the agenda of the MADANI economy advocated by him.
It was a significant document of wisdom in determining the direction of the country’s socioeconomic growth which was balanced in thinking, spiritual and material terms based on MADANI values, he added.
Earlier, the prime minister received the 12MP MTR document from Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli.
The document handover session marked the completion of the 12MP MTR document preparation prior to its tabling by the prime minister in Parliament on Sept 11, 2023, the Economy Ministry said in a Facebook post.
“The document’s preparation has taken nearly a year to be completed, involving all stakeholders including the ministries, government agencies, private sector, international bodies, civil society organisations and public,” the ministry said.
The 12MP MTR is a significant policy document in determining the direction of the national socioeconomic development that is balanced in mental, spiritual and physical aspects based on noble values.
The ministry said the document took its inspiration from the MADANI Economy: Empowering the People framework.
Also present at the document handover session were Deputy Economy Minister Datuk Hanifah Hajar Taib, the ministry’s secretary general Datuk Nor Azmie Diron, and deputy secretary general (policy) Datuk Dr Zunika Mohamed. – BERNAMA
