00:00...announcing the honorable arrival of Dato' Sri Anwar bin Ibrahim, Prime Minister of Indonesia.
00:11What do we agree on to increase productivity?
00:15First, to increase the minimum entry qualification into public education,
00:21to the Malaysian Certificate of Education, or SETARA.
00:25So, the burden and complexity of the task is added and increased.
00:35And this involves multiple tasks, multi-tasking and multi-skilling.
00:45As a return to the government, the use of human resources and public services can be optimized.
00:55We expect 17 services schemes to provide the best services in the evolution of technology and public education.
01:06Therefore, we carry out a study on the functions of ministries and agencies,
01:14which are focused on two main areas, namely entrepreneurship and national security,
01:19which is expected to be completed by July 2025.
01:21The JPA will conduct an audit of all ministries and agencies,
01:26so that this imbalance can be improved.
01:30And ministries and agencies must provide full cooperation,
01:34and not in the usual way,
01:36that is, each ministry only requires additional officers to follow the rules,
01:43but not to follow the principles.
01:45Therefore, the rationalization of the ministries and agencies must be improved.
01:55For example, abroad, we have the Tourism Board,
02:02we have MATRID, we have MITI,
02:05in addition to the Ministry of Finance,
02:07and all have their own ministries.
02:09And starting from January 1, 2025,
02:12all ministries abroad,
02:14MOTEC, MITI, MATRID, and MIDA,
02:17will be united under one roof to save costs
02:24and optimize the cost of operations.
02:27The world is still small,
02:29the economy and technology are advanced,
02:32but the way we think and act is still busy.
02:35Therefore, we must work together,
02:38ministries and agencies must accept the fact
02:41that these works can be carried out optimally
02:46through a more organized process.
