Approved projects, including those in the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP), that do not start within a reasonable time will be cancelled, to give way for projects for the rakyat which are more urgent, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

When tabling the 12th Malaysia Plan mid-term review in Parliament on Monday (Sept 11), the Prime Minister called on civil servants, including department heads, to execute their responsibilities honestly and with trustworthiness to avoid repeat incidents of wrongdoing and warnings reported in the Auditor-General's Report.
