AN ESTIMATED RM33.31bil will be required to implement the Second Selangor Plan (RS-2), says Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.
The Mentri Besar said the expenditure would not be borne solely by the state government, but would also involve state-owned companies, private-sector stakeholders and the Federal Government.
“The expenditure will be spread out and will not only involve state government funds, but also contributions from our subsidiaries, private-sector stakeholders and the Federal Government involved in the respective projects,” he said at a press conference after tabling RS-2 during the Selangor State Assembly in Shah Alam on Aug 7.
The five-year blueprint (2026 to 2030) comprises six missions, 25 priority areas and 98 initiatives involving areas ranging from economic development to talent development.
It is also expected to create 166,000 new jobs by 2030.
“I believe the RM33.31bil expenditure required will serve as a catalyst for Selangor’s economic success now and in the future,” said Amirudin.
He said RS-2 was formulated after reviewing the performance of the first Selangor Plan (RS-1), which recorded an overall achievement rate of 79%.
He disclosed that of the 16 indicators under RS-1, nine exceeded their targets while seven were not fully achieved and still needed to be completed..
Amirudin said the full RS-2 document would be debated by assemblymen beginning Aug 10, with feedback and proposals expected during deliberations on the state's development plans for the next five years.
He described RS-2 as having the potential to provide a new boost for Selangor towards 2030.
