Don’t 'run in place', focus on poorer states, Perikatan tells PM


PETALING JAYA: The success of the 13th Malaysian Plan (13MP) relies on the Madani government’s political sincerity and transparency, otherwise it risks becoming an exercise of "running in place", says Perikatan Nasional.

The Opposition coalition expressed concerns that, unlike the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP), the 13MP does not commit development expenditure to the six less-developed states: Sabah, Sarawak, Kelantan, Terengganu, Kedah, and Perlis.
