PMR 2025 Johor Concludes, Draws Over 130,000 Visitors
JOHOR BAHRU, May 25 (Bernama) – The MADANI Rakyat Programme (PMR) 2025 Johor held at Toppen Shopping Centre here concluded today, recording over 130,000 visitors throughout its three-day run.
Ministry of Youth and Sports (KBS) Deputy Secretary-General (Management), Abdullah Hasan said the figure exceeded the earlier target of 25,000, with an overwhelming turnout especially on Saturday and today (Sunday).
He explained that the moderately scaled PMR Johor also achieved its objectives by serving as a two-way communication platform that not only informed the public about government achievements and services, but also provided space for citizens to share their views and feedback directly with government agencies.
'With the organisation of PMR, the people are able to witness first-hand the improvements that have been made and understand how they can benefit from the various initiatives offered,' he said when met by reporters on the final day of the programme.
Earlier, the PMR Johor Secretariat reported that the total number of visitors over the three-day period was 136,395.
This edition of PMR 2025 Johor was led by KBS as the organising ministry, in collaboration with the Johor State Secretary's Office as host, and was part of the efforts of the Performance Acceleration Coordination Unit (PACU) under the Prime Minister's Department to bring the government to the people.
With the theme 'Belia MADANI: Yakin Boleh!' , the event aligned with the aspirations of the MADANI Government and fulfilled the goals of youth development policy.
'This time, we tailored the programme to the aspirations of young people, offering a variety of content that is not only informative but also provides opportunities for youth to actively participate in various self-development initiatives and programmes,' Abdullah said.
Among the offerings were exhibitions and service counters by government agencies, career opportunities, educational and training information, and various entrepreneurship initiatives targeted at the youth.
