THE GOVERNMENT Transformation Programme (GTP) which was launched three years ago has exceeded its target, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
He said the GTP, which was supervised by Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, was formulated based on the needs and aspirations of the people.
"During the three years since the launching of the Government Transformation Programme, its achievement has exceeded the target stipulated. Imagine that it was only three years ago (since its launch), if it had been five years ago, we could achieve even more," he said at the Batu Pahat Stadium today.
He said this when addressing about 50,000 people at the launching of the 'Jelajah Janji Ditepati' programme organised by Kumpulan Media Prima Berhad.
Also present at the programme were the Prime Minister's wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, Menteri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman, cabinet ministers and deputy ministers as well as senior leaders of the Barisan Nasional (BN).
Najib, who is also the Finance Minister and Umno president, said that under the GTP, the government had succeeded in constructing 1,000km of rural roads from Perlis right up to Sabah.
In addition, he said, the GTP had also achieved its objective in supplying electricity and water as well as houses which were now enjoyed by more than one million people under its target group.
"In the field of education, the GTP has succeeded in building about 3,000 kindergarten classes nationwide besides increasing the number of high-performance schools," Najib said.
Efforts to reduce the crime rate under the GTP had also shown encouraging results with the overall crime rate reduced by 39 per cent, the Prime Minister said.
As for street crimes, Najib said the government had reduced the rate by 11.1 per cent.
Under the GTP, the government had also taken various measures to bring down the cost of living borne by the people.
He said one of the measures was the 1Malaysia People's Aid (BR1M) where the government had given the RM500 aid to households earning below RM3,000.
"Four million households in the country received the BR1M facility," he said, adding that the government, under the GTP, also provided a book voucher of RM200 to each student of tertiary institutions, as well as a schooling aid of RM100 to primary and secondary school students.
Najib said that under the GTP too, the government had set up the 1Malaysia People's Shop (KR1M) where the goods sold were 40 per cent lower than the market price as well as the 1Malaysia People's Menu (MR1M).
The Prime Minister said that in efforts to ease the burden of the people, the government had not raised the price of RON95 petrol, besides providing subsidy for various commodities such as flour, sugar and cooking oil.
"The government had spent RM30 billion for all the subsidies to ease the cost of living borne by the people and that is the government desired by the people," he said which was greeted with loud applause. (Bernama)
Dengan perancangan kerajaan diharap ekonomi negara semakin meningkat positif
ReplyDeleteGTP dalam jalan yang betul untuk dilaksanakan sepenuhnya.
ReplyDeletesyabas dengan pencapaian ini, namun jangan mudah berpuas hati malah teruskan memberikan tumpuan kepada tuntutan2 rakyat dan pemimpin2 pembangkang..
ReplyDeleteThe GTP and ETP achieved success because all of us worked together as a strong team to ensure that whatever programmes that ahad been planned and implemented are realised, and this has been proven.
ReplyDeleteHe was asked to comment on Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s announcement that all 12 National Key Economic Areas (NKEAs) have either exceeded or met last year’s target.
ReplyDeleteThe Chief Minister congratulate the Prime Minister for announcing the GTP and ETP results, which show that with political will the Barisan Nasional government can carry out its promise to the people.
ReplyDeleteHe said the results showed development in the urban and rural areas and enhancing the people’s income; not to mention a lot of improvement and progress in terms of reducing crime rate.
ReplyDeleteThe crime index rate for the City for the first four months of the year is lower compared to the same period last year.
ReplyDeleteCity Hall (DBKK) director general Datuk Yeo Boon Hai said the crime index rate from January to April 21 registered 576 cases as compared to 834 cases during the same period in 2011.That’s a big decrease – a total of 258 cases or 31 per cent.
ReplyDeleteYeo said efforts to make the City even safer would continue with various projects through the Safe City Programme.
ReplyDeleteThis year, DBKK would be allocated a total of RM1 million from the Home Ministry to implement the projects.
ReplyDeleteAmong them would be to brighten up the Old KK area and the separation of pedestrian walkways and roads / streets along Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman (from Bandaran Berjaya to Karamunsing), along Jalan Tun Abdul Razak (from Hotel Horizon to City Park) and from Sacred Heart Cathedral to SK Sacred Heart. Other projects would be to provide safety mirrors, reminder signboards and so on.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, the Police would continue to cooperate with DBKK to ensure the success of the Safe City Programme. The Police would continue to provide constant patrol to ensure the City is safe.
ReplyDeleteSo this is the result of the BN efforts with determination coupled with work togetherness to continue maintaining work efficiently, with sincerity and integrity: whatever programmes we plan and implement will achieve results as aspired by the Prime Minister.
ReplyDeleteAs such, the Chief Minister urged the civil service to keep on working hard to make sure the development programmes continue to benefit the people.
ReplyDeleteHe also asked all civil servants in Sabah and federal agencies to enhance their efforts in serving the people in line with the 1Malaysia slogan of ‘People First, Performance Now’.
ReplyDeleteThe Barisan Nasional (BN) government is driven by commitment and initiative to continue to bring prosperity to the people.
ReplyDeleteAll of this are not done with the wave of the magic wand. What BN do have are commitment, policies and programmes. These programmes are planned not for a year or two but for five to 10 years.
ReplyDeleteAssets are gathered and put in the effort to derive more revenue so that the people, even in the rural areas, can enjoy development.
ReplyDeleteThe BN responsibility does not rest there. They want the development to continue, to achieve Vision 2020 (of becoming a developed country).
ReplyDeleteReferring to the Kota Belud area which has been targeted by the opposition over the proposed construction of a dam, the opposition was only good at exploiting the local people.
ReplyDeleteThe government worked hard to resolve the people’s problems at all times and not just on the eve of elections.
ReplyDeleteThe people in Sabah should not have any doubt about development because the federal government would not marginalise the state which had seen much development under Chief Minister Musa’s administration.
