‘Madani reform agenda advancing,' says Azalina as over 30 laws amended under current govt
KUALA LUMPUR, June 12 — The Madani government has delivered the Parliamentary Services Act 2025 and spearheaded more than 30 legal amendments since 2023, said Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said. 'This is not mere rhetoric. It is concrete evidence that the MADANI Reform agenda is very much alive and advancing,' she said in a Facebook post yesterday. Azalina said she agreed with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's statement yesterday that reform efforts should not be rushed, but rather approached as a structured process requiring thorough consideration. 'Systemic reform is never instantaneous, and for good reason. As policymakers, our duty is to ensure that every reform is not only ambitious but also implementable. There is no wisdom in putting the cart before the horse. 'Let's be clear, the #MADANI government has laid the foundations for reform at a pace unmatched by previous administrations. The results speak for themselves. #MADANIBekerja,' she added. She also invited the public to visit the PetaRI portal, developed by the Legal Affairs Division of the Prime Minister's Department at which regularly updates the progress of the reform initiatives. — Bernama

Vertical school in Penang housing project to boost safety, cut costs
KUALA LUMPUR: The integration of a vertical school concept within the Rumah Bakat Madani housing project in Penang is expected to enhance student safety and ease the transportation cost burden on families, said Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. The prime minister said that incorporating educational elements into residential development is part of the Madani Government's initiative to build compassionate neighbourhoods and foster community development based on Madani values. Anwar said this approach underscores the government's commitment to promoting holistic well-being for the people, rather than focusing solely on physical structures and architectural design. "The planned vertical school element, integrated with the housing project, aims to ensure student safety, and I believe it can also help families save on transportation costs," he said in a Facebook post yesterday. He also stressed that the Madani Government places strong emphasis on expediting project approvals through collaboration across ministries, agencies and with the involvement of state governments. Anwar said the project is an initiative involving private developer SkyWorld, aimed at enabling low- and middle-income groups to own affordable homes. "I was informed that the development will also include essential infrastructure and comprehensive facilities such as schools and childcare centres, surau, commercial spaces, as well as landscaped areas and parks," he said. Earlier, the prime minister attended a presentation session on the project concept with the developer's representatives in Putrajaya.
