Haniff said the 19th MAPPA serves as a platform for the Prime Minister to outline key government policies, marking the first significant update since the last meeting in 2022.

“We expect around 7,000 civil servants to attend and hear the Prime Minister’s address firsthand. For those unable to attend in person, the announcement will be available via live broadcast on various platforms, including social media,” he added.

On the organisation of this year’s MAPPA, themed "MADANI Civil Service," Haniff highlighted that 32 ministry and agency offices will be opened to provide services to both civil servants and the public.

"The largest booth will be hosted by the Public Service Department and INTAN. In addition, the Royal Malaysia Police and the Road Transport Department booths will be available to allow visitors to settle summonses at a discounted rate," he said.

He added that parking facilities will be available around the PICC with a shuttle service provided to facilitate the movement of attendees.
