Special committee to oversee First Selangor Plan programmes’ implementation

By Mustakim Ramli

KLANG, Aug 7 — The Selangor government has formed a number of special committees to ensure the smooth running of all the First Selangor Plan (RS-1) programmes, says Dato’ Teng Chang Khim.

The state executive councillor for investment, trade and industry said some of the committees concerned with projects connected to sustainability and welfare have begun operating during the past few months.

“As for the other committees that haven’t started yet, it might need the private sector’s engagement or further details.

“Therefore, we will do roadshows and seminars to give further explanation on the RS-1,” he told Selangorkini.

Teng said that the committees are spearheaded by Selangor State Secretary Dato’ Haris Kasim and some state executive councillors related to the initiatives.

On July 27, Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari had stated that the RS-1, which is the framework for mobilising state policy for a five-year period, involves projects and initiatives worth a total of RM212.44 billion.

He said that the RS-1 outlines 14 macro indicators as overall achievement indicators for the plan, to ensure that the initiatives executed may be evaluated for their performance.

The plan contains four strategic themes, five policy catalysts and 262 initiatives, including 20 game-changer projects.
