Sunday, March 24, 2013

Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili expressed his confidence that Sabah's place is secured in developed Malaysia in 2020 under Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s transformation agenda.  


The Government Transformation Programme (GTP) and the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP),  had directly addresssed the needs of Sabah and Sarawak.

The Science, Technology and Innovation Minister added that the  people of Sabah and Sarawak stand to and had benefited under the National Key Result Areas (NKRAs) for security, education, rural development and income improvement.

Ongkili added that there were many programmes in the pipeline under these sectors that would further advance Sabah’s economy and improve the people’s living standard.

On the  ETP’s 2012 Annual Report presented by the Prime Minister,  Ongkili commented that Najib had said most of the objectives of the government’s transformation plans had been achieved which had led to an improvement in the people’s quality of life, the economy was growing well and the financial position of the country was very strong.

Najib also said the planning and execution of the ETP and GTP not only proved the government’s determination to steer the country based on the ‘1Malaysia’s People First, Performance Now’ concept, but were also the boldest experiments ever undertaken by any government in the world in practising the principles of transparency and accountability.

Ongkili said the ETP’s initiatives are  all directly relevant to Sabah's economy; especially plans relating to bio-economy, digital economy and industries.
