Melaka Focuses Efforts On Strengthening State Economy - Ab Rauf
MELAKA, Nov 15 (Bernama) -- The Melaka government will focus on strengthening the state's economy, attracting investments and expediting the implementation of strategic development projects, while also improving the management of public complaints.
Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh said all state development programmes would be implemented in an organised manner to ensure that the people benefit from them.
"I do not want the people to wait too long to see the results of state development. A government that has been given a mandate must immediately get to work for the people. They do not just want to hear promises. They want to see results," he said.
He was speaking at a press conference after taking his oath of office for a second term as Melaka Chief Minister at Seri Negeri here today.
On the appointment of state executive council (Exco) members, Ab Rauf declined to specify a date, saying that the possibility of including representatives from Perikatan Nasional (PN) was still under consideration.
In yesterday's 16th Melaka State Election, the alliance between Barisan Nasional (BN) and PN secured 24 seats in the State Legislative Assembly, while Pakatan Harapan (PH) won the remaining four seats.
