Perak PMR 2025 Offers 1,000+ Jobs, Govt Services, Discounts
According to Sapian Mamat, Head of Corporate Communications at the Performance Acceleration and Coordination Unit (PACU) under the Prime Minister's Department, the initiative aims to connect youth and job seekers directly with potential employers through walk-in interviews conducted on-site.
'This is a golden opportunity for young people who are actively seeking employment. So, we encourage them to come to PMR, dressed appropriately, and bring a complete resume to make a strong impression on prospective employers,' he said when featured on Apa Khabar Malaysia, a talk show aired on Bernama TV today.
Sapian said that in addition to job prospects, the Perak edition of PMR will also feature more than 200 services provided directly to the public by various federal and state government agencies.
He said the PMR also serves as a platform for the public to better understand government policies, including the Public Service Reform Agenda (ARPA), while offering feedback for service improvements.
With the theme 'Pendidikan Tinggi Pemacu Negara MADANI', this Perak PMR focuses on the vital role of higher learning institutions in national development, with the Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) as the leading agency, and the state government as the host.
'In line with the theme, students from TVET (Technical and Vocational Education and Training) institutions will be providing free motorcycle servicing for visitors, which is part of the efforts to promote TVET as a practical and valuable educational pathway,' he added.
Other highlights at Perak PMR 2025 include the MADANI Sale initiative, offering discounts of up to 30 per cent, and exhibitions featuring security assets from the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), Malaysian Armed Forces (ATM), and the Malaysian Civil Defence Force (APM).
Four satellite programmes are also being held in the Manjung district, including Belia Silat MADANI (held on June 1), a community event with fishermen (June 21), Kenduri Rakyat MADANI (June 15), and religious activities scheduled for June 20 and 21.
As such, Sapian urged residents of Perak and those from the Central and Northern Zones to take full advantage of the opportunities offered during the programme, which runs daily from 9 am to 10 pm.

SST on imported fruit to combat smuggling and support local agriculture, says Anwar
KOTA BHARU: Extending the Sales and Service Tax (SST) to imported fruit is part of the government's efforts to curb ongoing smuggling in border states, says Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Anwar, who is also Finance Minister, said that the move was also intended to encourage the public to prioritise local fruit. "Some people are unhappy about the tax on imported fruit, but this is my way of ensuring that people choose local produce. "Otherwise, smuggling will continue through border areas such as Sungai Golok in Kelantan, Bukit Kayu Hitam in Kedah and Wang Kelian and Padang Besar in Perlis'. He made this statement while officiating at the closing ceremony of the Kelantan edition of the MADANI Rakyat Programme (PMR) 2025, held at the Sultan Muhammad IV Stadium in Kota Bharu on Saturday (Aug 9). Also present were Kelantan Menteri Besar, Datuk Mohd Nassuruddin Daud; Science, Technology and Innovation Minister, Chang Lih Kang; Home Minister, Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail and Chief Secretary to the Government, Tan Sri Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar. Anwar also said that some imported fruit, such as oranges and apples, remain exempt from the SST for now. On June 27, Treasury secretary-general, Datuk Johan Mahmood Merican, said that, while particular imported fruit such as strawberries, blueberries and avocados would remain subject to SST under the extension, the exemption for apples and oranges was intended to ease the financial burden on consumers, given their high consumption among Malaysians. – Bernama

KOTA BHARU, Aug 8 (Bernama) -- Visitors to the Kelantan MADANI Rakyat Programme 2025 will be able to scan and determine the purity of gold in their jewellery using the scanning machine provided by the Standards and Industrial Research Institute of Malaysia (SIRIM). SIRIM corporate communications division senior executive, Mohd Zul Arsham Mohamad said the machine, specially brought to the programme as Kelantanese women are known to collect jewellery, would allow visitors to confirm the actual purity and weight of the gold contained in their purchased items. 'Usually, this machine is only available in certain premises and not in jewellery shops as it is costly. So those who wish to verify the purity of gold can visit our booth throughout the three days of PMR.
