#Selangor2022: Major boost to roadworks aimed at closing urban-rural divide

By Nasuha Badrul Huzaini

SHAH ALAM, Nov 26 — The Selangor government aims to close the state’s development gap and allocate approximately RM138.13 million to the Selangor Public Works Department for road projects next year.

Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari said widening and increasing road networks in the state would narrow the gaps in district areas.

“To accomplish this, the state government has approved the allocation for 2022,” he said during the tabling of the 2022 Selangor Budget (#Selangor2022) at the Selangor State Legislative Assembly, here today.

The state government had allocated RM2.343 billion under #Selangor2022, which will be dispersed to the people through five central cores.

The strategies are to spur a high-impact economy and build a better delivery system; to grow a caring society and ensure the people’s wellbeing; to strengthen Selangor’s public healthcare system; to create a green environment and practise sustainable development; and to optimise smart technology and digitalisation.
