Empowered Public Sector Can Channel Aid To People Better Muhyiddin
Empowering the public sector is an important agenda that is often stressed in the Perikatan Nasional government, said Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.
He said this is so that messages and assistance can be channeled effectively to the target groups.
As such, he said the focus should be on reducing bureaucratic constraints to help all levels of society, especially in rural areas.
"Simplify the application process for assistance to the people. Simplify applications from traders, entrepreneurs, and investors. Each application should be considered as best as possible,” he said.
He was speaking at a special meeting with civil servants at a hotel in Kuching, Sarawak earlier today.
Muhyiddin said the government also set up the Digital Economy and Industrial Revolution 4.0 (4IR) Council which aimed to set policies, implement and monitor strategies, as well as come up with digital economy and 4IR initiatives in Malaysia.
He said establishing the council was in line with the government's awareness of the importance of the public service sector as a catalyst in the field of digitalisation and driving transformation towards IR4.0
“The government has also introduced the MyDigital plan and the Malaysian Digital Economy Blueprint to drive the digital transformation of the public sector.
"This includes efforts to produce 100 percent digitally literate civil servants and 80 percent online government services right from the beginning to the end, by 2025," he said.
He added that the widespread use of technology post-Covid-19 in the civil service can definitely add value to the delivery of government services.
Muhyiddin, who earlier attended a briefing on Sarawak's development direction, said the state's plan for the period until 2030 was in line with the federal government's Shared Prosperity Vision 2030.
"In terms of thinking, in terms of vision, and in terms of the steps that have been drawn up, I think it is quite thorough. I am very impressed with what has been formulated and the plan promises success for Sarawak," he said.
The prime minister also assured that the federal government will continue to give full support to Sarawak in its efforts to help the state achieve a developed state status by 2030.
"You have what it takes to put Sarawak on the world stage so that the country benefits from the development efforts that have been taken and will definitely come from Sarawak," he said.
The meeting was also attended by Sarawak Chief Minister Abang Johari Openg, Chief Secretary to the Government Mohd Zuki Ali, Sarawak State Secretary Amar Jaul Samion, and Sarawak Federal Secretary Mohd Shahabuddin Omar.
