Author: Nur Zulaikha Azmi
- The two current major policy programmes, the 2019 National Anti-Corruption Plan and Shared Prosperity Vision 2030 (SPV2030), include specific commitments to reform and a redefinition of SOEs role in the economy. This paper describes specific commitments in those two major policy documents to achieve those objectives.
- The SPV2030 envisions the SOEs to play a greater role as an investor in key growth areas and a more proactive role in ensuring equitable development outcomes for Bumiputera.
- The NACP’s objective is to address the issues on SOE governance, especially to combat corruption and improve transparency, address political interference and ensure efficient use of government resources by the SOEs.
