THE Sarawak government will implement a comprehensive delivery framework to ensure the successful implementation of projects under the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP).
Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg said the framework will incorporate Integrated Results-Based Management (IRBM), Results-Based Budgeting and Value Management for seamless coordination and performance monitoring.
“IRBM will be the foundation, ensuring all projects align with Sarawak’s 2030 goals through strategic planning, budgeting, monitoring, and evaluation. Results-Based Budgeting will enhance resource efficiency, linking funding to measurable outcomes.
“Additionally, through value at entry, every proposed project will undergo a thorough assessment to ensure viability, readiness, and accurate cost estimation, reducing delays and improving execution.
“Together, through determined leadership, accountability, and execution, we will realise the vision of the 13MP, creating lasting progress and prosperity for all Sarawakians,” he said.
Abang Johari, who is also the Minister of Finance and New Economy, said this in his ministerial winding-up speech at the Sarawak Legislative Assembly (DUN) sitting today (May 28).
Earlier, he said Sarawak stood at the midpoint of the Post Covid-19 Development Strategy (PCDS) 2030 and the final year of the 12MP, and now must advance with speed, clarity and purpose.
“The 13MP (2026–2030) serves as a crucial planning framework that reinforces our long-term vision.
“The plan is designed to ensure that our strategies and actions remain consistent with Sarawak’s aspirations. With unity of purpose and collective insight, we can turn this framework into tangible outcomes that uplift the well-being of every Sarawakian.
“In response to evolving economic, social, and governance dynamics in Sarawak, we have set the priorities of the 13MP, ensuring stronger policies, smoother implementation, and long-term success,” he said.
He added under the 13MP, Sarawak’s development agenda will be further driven by 10 high-level strategies and a reinforced focus on 15 socio-economic sectors and enablers, which reflect the state’s advancing priorities and development needs.
