KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 13 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said stronger coordination among implementers of Bumiputera entrepreneur development initiatives is crucial to ensure efforts are focused, complementary, and make the most of each party’s strengths.
In a Facebook post, Anwar said he had emphasised this point when receiving a courtesy call from Malay Traders and Entrepreneurs Association (PERDASAMA) president Mohd Azamanizam Baharon and his delegation today.
“During the meeting, I stressed the rationale and commitment of the government regarding the Bumiputera development agenda, which needs to be understood and embraced by all associations, including PERDASAMA.
“The government welcomes the proposed initiatives put forward by PERDASAMA, and I am confident that this strategic collaboration will have a greater impact in strengthening the Bumiputera business ecosystem and expanding the country’s economic opportunities,” he said.
