Kota MADANI that aligns with chase city vision
PUTRAJAYA: Kota MADANI, a city envisioned with integrated artificial intelligence technology, efficient digital infrastructure, and a green mobility system, is set to be developed in Putrajaya, said Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories), Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa.
She said the development concept for Kota MADANI Putrajaya was presented to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim earlier today.
'This development is a long-term strategic investment in shaping Putrajaya's future as a model city that upholds MADANI values and aligns with the vision of a CHASE City.
'With a land area of 102 acres, Kota MADANI will feature 10,000 units of residential quarters to accommodate over 30,000 residents, designed as high-density vertical housing,' she said in a statement.
On January 1, Dr Zaliha announced the CHASE City vision, aimed at transforming all three Federal Territories into cities that are Clean, Healthy, Advanced, Safe, and Eco-Friendly.
Dr Zaliha said Kota MADANI will serve as the foundation for a low-carbon city that upholds the principles of sustainability, well-being, and public safety.
'InsyaAllah, the groundbreaking ceremony is scheduled for June 26. Thank you to the Prime Minister for his confidence and insightful views in refining the strategic direction of Kota MADANI as a catalyst for more human-centric and progressive urban renewal,' she added.

Kota MADANI shows govt's commitment to address civil servants' housing
KUALA LUMPUR: The Kota MADANI project demonstrates the government's commitment to fulfilling the rights and needs of civil servants, particularly as a concrete solution to public housing issues in Putrajaya, said Parti Keadilan Rakyat Central Leadership Council member Sivamalar Genapathy. She said the project is not designed for the elite nor did it carry the 'skyscraper syndrome' seen under previous administrations, but rather aims to address the imbalance between applications for quarters and the number of available units in Putrajaya. 'The Auditor-General's Report 2021 confirmed that nearly 18,000 civil servants remain on the waiting list for government quarters. Yet, no new quarters have been developed in recent years. 'The reality is, 90 percent of Putrajaya's population consists of civil servants. Therefore, it is only right and necessary for the government to ensure their basic needs are met,' she said in a statement today. The Kota MADANI project is reported to offer 10,000 units of quarters designated for civil servants and is expected to accommodate up to 30,000 residents by offering an inclusive and sustainable urban development model. Sivamalar said the number is not merely a statistic but a true commitment to addressing the needs of those who have long served as the backbone of the nation's administration — proving that the MADANI government does not merely make promises, but delivers concrete solutions to longstanding issues that have been neglected. Previously, Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories) Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa stated that the Kota MADANI development represents a long-term strategic investment in shaping the future of Putrajaya as a model city that upholds MADANI values, in line with the vision of Bandar Chase. Dr Zaliha said Kota MADANI will serve as the foundation for a low-carbon city that upholds the principles of sustainability, well-being, and public safety.

Malay Secretariat politically motivated, Bumiputra Economic Congress more effective, says Ahmad Maslan
SHAH ALAM: The formation of the Malay Secretariat Committee is politically motivated, in contrast to the Bumiputra Economic Congress (KEB), which actively advocates for Bumiputera rights, says Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan. The Umno supreme council member said the Madani government-driven KEB has a focused and consistent plan to uplift the bumiputra community as a whole. "The rights of the Malays have been a long-standing focus for Umno and Barisan Nasional (BN), which consistently advocated for their interests, particularly in promoting the bumiputra community welfare each year. This commitment is reflected in various initiatives, such as the KEB, which the government is implementing to uplift the bumiputra community. "We have been undertaking such initiatives for generations. It doesn't make sense for them to think about doing the same thing as they did yesterday," he told reporters after attending the handing-over of letters of acceptance for projects aimed at addressing overcrowded schools in various states, here Thursday (June 5). Ahmad, who is also Deputy Works Minister, was commenting on the formation of the Malay Secretariat Committee, announced by former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad on Wednesday (June 4). He said the committee does not require public support, as it is exclusively for Malays and that the KEB plays a more effective role in advancing the bumiputra community. - Bernama
