Gov't Prioritises Ecosystem, Supply Chain In Implementing Public Projects - PM Anwar

PARIT BUNTAR, Aug 30 (Bernama) --The government has made two key considerations in the implementation of projects aimed at meeting the needs of the people, particularly those related to the ecosystem and supply chain, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said.

Citing the Kerian Integrated Green Industrial Park (KIGIP) as an example, he said the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) and Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB) have been directed to ensure these considerations are properly coordinated.

The prime minister added that once these considerations are aligned, the process of approving public facilities will be streamlined, resulting in more reasonable costs.

"I have asked for this (coordination) to be expedited. We are asking for a new highway network to provide access to this area, which has been approved with additional provisions for KIGIP project requirements. The Federal government will take responsibility for this, while the state government and of course, the company will handle the rest.

“This project is different from others as the funds are largely managed by the private sector," he said when officiating at the KIGIP groundbreaking ceremony near here today.
