According to Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow, Penang 2030 is an action plan initiated by the state government since last August, which focused on improving Penang’s liveability, economy, civil participation and balanced development to achieve “a family-focused, green and smart state that inspires the nation”.
“We hope that the guidebook would generate greater interest in inviting stakeholders, whether it is from industries, organisations, or individuals, to be on board with the state government and myself to go through and see the initiatives that they can work on which could translate into a policy, a programme or a project,” he told a press conference after the launching programme.
