PUTRAJAYA: Every project under the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) will be monitored regularly to ensure there are no delays in implementation, says Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar (pic).
Accordingly, the monitoring of projects under the 13MP will be jointly conducted by the Finance and Economy ministries, with reports to be made twice a year.
“This time, we will really make sure that the 13MP is implemented as planned, because it spans a long period until 2030.
“All approved projects must be implemented promptly, because any delay will cause disappointment among the people,” he said after launching the Mappa XX 2025 Run here yesterday.
Shamsul Azri said he will personally conduct site visits and carry out spot checks at all 13MP project locations, Bernama reported.
“Our aim is to serve the people. Therefore, we must implement development initiatives without delay and free from bureaucracy,” he said.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, when tabling the 13MP in the Dewan Rakyat, said monitoring will be enhanced through the Policy Implementation Plan Monitoring System.
“The 13MP governance structure will also be mobilised in stages, culminating in reports to the Cabinet,” he said.
Under the 13MP, Anwar said infrastructure and public facility projects involving flood mitigation and improved road accessibility are among the people-centric initiatives that will be prioritised from 2026 to 2030.
A total of RM20bil has been allocated to implement 103 flood mitigation projects to reduce the risks and impact of such disasters.
In addition, one million units of affordable housing will be built by the federal and state governments, as well as private developers, from 2026 to 2035 to enable as many people as possible to live in safe and comfortable homes.
Meanwhile, Shamsul Azri expressed appreciation to the approximately 12,000 participants who took part in the Mappa XX 2025 Run in Putrajaya.
“Healthy citizens, prosperous nation. Let’s be active and engage in sports,” he said.
