13MP to be tabled in Parliament on July 28
PUTRAJAYA: The 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) is expected to be tabled in Parliament on July 28, says government spokesman Datuk Fahmi Fadzil. He said at the Cabinet meeting yesterday, Economy Ministry secretary-general Datuk Nor Azmie Diron presented a briefing summary on the Plan's implementation. Fahmi said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim had requested all ministries to review the draft presented and provide feedback to the ministry before it is finalised for tabling in Parliament. 'This will be the first Malaysia Plan to be tabled by the Prime Minister,' he said at his weekly press conference yesterday. On Tuesday, Anwar had said that the Plan would mark a turning point in the government's efforts to address national economic challenges, including development and income gaps, limited fiscal space, and the slow pace of structural economic transition. The 13MP, which covers 2026-2030 is one of the government's key policy documents for implementing its economic agenda. On another matter, Fahmi said enforcement measures to curb the online sale of prohibited items, including drug-laced vape products, will soon be laid out. He said a meeting will be held with Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali and Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad to discuss enforcement measures on banned products. This includes the sale of liquids believed to contain banned drugs through apps, social media platforms and online in general. Fahmi said the move reflects the government's commitment to tackling the widespread availability of such products online. 'The outcome of the meeting will be presented to the Cabinet, followed by enforcement action against individual sellers or platforms that enable such sales.' Fahmi also said the Online Safety Act 2024 is expected to be enforced soon after several key processes related to the legislation are finalised, adding he is currently awaiting the draft of the Act. 'Once it is ready and I sign the gazette to enforce the Act, it will come into effect,' he said. Fahmi said a committee will also be set up by the Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform), Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said, to oversee the implementation of the Act. 'This committee will have regulatory powers over the enforcement of the Act, such as defining what constitutes online harms,' he explained.
