Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is in Penang today for a one-day working visit centred on development initiatives and public service programmes.
The Prime Minister, who also holds the Finance portfolio, is scheduled to attend the 80th anniversary celebration of the Road Transport Department (JPJ) alongside the JPJ MADANI Mega Carnival at the Penang State Stadium grounds in Batu Kawan at 10.30am.
Transport Minister Anthony Loke, Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Shamsul Azri Abdul Bakar, and JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli are accompanying Anwar at the event.
Following the carnival, Anwar will chair the Seberang Perai Tengah Development meeting at the Seberang Perai City Council (MBSP) in Bukit Mertajam, a session expected to coordinate local development agendas across the district.
The visit concludes with the opening ceremony of the National Information Dissemination Centre (NADI) Kubang Semang at 3pm.
Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil will also attend the ceremony, which marks the MCMC’s NADI being recognised as an International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Digital Transformation Centre.
