The passing of the development plan was announced by Speaker Ng Suee Lim after obtaining the agreement of all assemblymen. A total of 28 assemblymen had debated on RS-1 since last Thursday.

“Members of the assembly appeared to be very enthusiastic about discussing the proposal. They were very active as only five or six people would usually participate in such motions,” he said when met by reporters after the Selangor assembly meeting today.

Selangor menteri besar Amirudin Shari said the state government was ready to work with the opposition to monitor the implementation of RS-1.

This includes establishing a new special committee or through the Selangor Special Select Committee on Capability, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat).

Amirudin had presented the RS-1 five-year plan on July 27 to focus specifically on economic growth, “empowering the people through welfare programmes, sustainable development, and transparent and efficient government systems and services”.
