Pm Dishes Out Rm150m For Home Ministry Agencies
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim today announced the approval of an allocation worth RM150 million for the maintenance of facilities belonging to agencies under the Home Ministry.
This is to ensure the comfort of the country’s security forces personnel.
Anwar said the government approved an allocation of RM45 million specifically for repair and upgrading work and procurement of equipment at 117 General Operations Force (GOF) control posts and RM40 million for Eastern Sabah Security Command (ESSCom)-related infrastructure and facilities.
“For police quarters with broken floors and (problematic) toilets, I approved an allocation of RM50 million (for the maintenance of police stations and quarters).
“I also approved RM15 million for the Prisons Department (work to repair quarters and facilities),” he said when speaking at the Malaysia Madani programme with the police Department of Internal Security and Public Order at the Kulim GOF Battalion 2 today.
Also present were Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail and Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain.
Anwar, who is also the finance minister, said the relevant ministries and parties must table the action plan for projects under the RM150 million allocation in the coming cabinet meeting.
“I announced today, on Monday there must be action from the Finance Ministry… The IGP, KSU (Home Ministry secretary-general) and minister can check all the progress.
“It means at the coming cabinet meeting, the reports must be on the table regarding my announcement today… because we do not want anyone to think that the minister or prime minister’s job is just to make announcements, but not implementing them,” he said.
Anwar said that the government has, overall, provided a total allocation of RM350 million this year to upgrade Home Ministry agencies’ facilities for the welfare of security forces personnel.
In Budget 2023, the government provided a development allocation of RM200 million for the maintenance of facilities of several agency quarters under the Home Ministry, including the police and Prisons Department.
