KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 6 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today stressed government projects should directly benefit the public rather than be skyscrapers or large-scale developments.

He said while private sectors are welcome to develop high-rise buildings, the government does not see this as a priority.

“That is why the Federal Territories must emphasise projects that directly benefit the people from the outset.

“Skyscrapers can be developed by the private sector if they wish, but the government should not prioritise,” he said during his speech when officiating Madani Malaysian Civil Servants’ Housing Programme (PPAM) at Bandar Sri Permaisuri here.
