KUALA LUMPUR – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is launching the New Industrial Master Plan 2030 (NIMP 2030) today.

The event will be held at the Investment, Trade and Industry Ministry (Miti), which is the driver of the NIMP. 

NIMP 2030 is a comprehensive policy framework that includes missions, priorities, and action plans for transforming the manufacturing sector in Malaysia. 

In his National Day address in Putrajaya on Wednesday, Anwar said NIMP 2030 will turn Malaysia into a high-tech industrialised nation through digital transformation.

“It will focus on a transition that is not limited to a particular sector but one with the objective and mission of turning Malaysia into a high-tech industrialised nation through digital transformation and creating job opportunities for hundreds of thousands of youths in new fields,” said Anwar, who is also finance minister. 

According to the prime minister, digital transformation in the industry will not only restore Malaysia as a preferred investment destination but also boost the country’s capabilities. – September 1, 2023
