Perak PMR to offer over 1,000 job opportunities and on-site interviews
According to Sapian Mamat, Head of Corporate Communications at the Performance Acceleration and Coordination Unit (PACU) under the Prime Minister's Department, the initiative aims to connect youth and job seekers directly with potential employers through walk-in interviews conducted on-site.
'This is a golden opportunity for young people who are actively seeking employment. So, we encourage them to come to PMR, dressed appropriately, and bring a complete resume to make a strong impression on prospective employers,' he said when featured on Apa Khabar Malaysia, a talk show aired on Bernama TV today.
Sapian said that in addition to job prospects, the Perak edition of PMR will also feature more than 200 services provided directly to the public by various federal and state government agencies.
He said the PMR also serves as a platform for the public to better understand government policies, including the Public Service Reform Agenda (ARPA), while offering feedback for service improvements.
With the theme 'Pendidikan Tinggi Pemacu Negara MADANI', this Perak PMR focuses on the vital role of higher learning institutions in national development, with the Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) as the leading agency, and the state government as the host.
'In line with the theme, students from TVET (Technical and Vocational Education and Training) institutions will be providing free motorcycle servicing for visitors, which is part of the efforts to promote TVET as a practical and valuable educational pathway,' he added.
Other highlights at Perak PMR 2025 include the MADANI Sale initiative, offering discounts of up to 30 per cent, and exhibitions featuring security assets from the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), Malaysian Armed Forces (ATM), and the Malaysian Civil Defence Force (APM).
Four satellite programmes are also being held in the Manjung district, including Belia Silat MADANI (held on June 1), a community event with fishermen (June 21), Kenduri Rakyat MADANI (June 15), and religious activities scheduled for June 20 and 21.
As such, Sapian urged residents of Perak and those from the Central and Northern Zones to take full advantage of the opportunities offered during the programme, which runs daily from 9 am to 10 pm.

Anwar announces RM10mil allocation to spur development in Muar
MUAR: The federal government has approved an allocation of RM10 million to implement various development projects in the district, aimed at enhancing the well-being of the people and stimulating the local economy. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the funds would be disbursed immediately to ensure that Muar residents can begin reaping the benefits in the near future. "The government wants the people of Muar to enjoy balanced development. "As such, this RM10 million allocation will be utilised effectively through various identified development projects," he said during the launch of the 2025 National Month and Fly the Jalur Gemilang Campaign at Tanjung Emas here today. Also present were Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil and Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi. Anwar, who is also the finance minister, said the implementation of the projects would be coordinated by the Implementation Coordination Unit (ICU) of the Prime Minister's Department together with the Muar District Office. Earlier, Onn Hafiz expressed his appreciation to the government for selecting Muar as the host of the 2025 National Month and Fly the Jalur Gemilang Campaign launch. "Muar is a place where the history of independence was shaped and is the birthplace of key figures who paved the way for nation-building, including Datuk Onn Jaafar, Tan Sri Mohamed Noah Omar, and Abdul Majid Salleh. "When Johor, particularly Muar, is chosen, I believe it is not a coincidence but a recognition of its historical significance," he said. After launching the event, Anwar also flagged off the 2025 Merdeka Jalur Gemilang Convoy, involving 88 land vehicles and 66 water transport assets, with more than 300 participants in total. The convoy will carry the Jalur Gemilang flag across the country, passing through 88 checkpoints (44 in Peninsular Malaysia, 20 in Sabah, 22 in Sarawak, and two in the Federal Territory of Labuan) before concluding at Dataran Putrajaya on Aug 31, the venue for the 2025 National Day celebration.
