Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak wants government agencies to exercise boldness in reviewing decisions and conditions made in the public interest to ensure effective implementation.He said it might be felt that a decision was right when it was made but, with the imposition of conditions, there might be difficulty in implementation of plans or projects."What we have proposed in the 10th Malaysia Plan, Budget 2011 and other plans can be implemented, and when we know that something is not working, we must find out the reason.
"Perhaps there are weaknesses in the operating ministry or problems connected to land or failure of the contractor or the conditions imposed are too severe."As such, I feel we must have the boldness to change our earlier decisions," said Najib, who is also the finance minister, when addressing a special gathering of staff of the Finance Ministry in Putrajaya today. Also present at the event were Second Finance Minister Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah and Treasury secretary-general Wan Abdul Aziz Wan Abdullah.
Najib reminded the central agencies that every decision announced by the government was public knowledge.As such, he said, it was incumbent on every government agency to ensure that decisions were implemented."This is the government's commitment to its promises ... the government's undertaking to the people."I feel we can make it work. Review (decisions or conditions made). Find out how best to implement," he said.
