KUALA LUMPUR, April 3 Asia Pulse - As the first five-year blueprint of the National Mission towards becoming a developed nation by 2020, the Ninth Malaysia Plan (9MP) has outlined five key thrusts in achieving the aspiration.
The 9MP report, themed "Together Towards Excellence, Glory and Distinction" spelt out policies and key programmes aimed at fulfilling the mission's thrusts and objectives for the 2006-2010 period.
According to the report tabled in Parliament by Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi Friday, the next 15-year phase will be guided by the National Mission, a policy and implementation framework aimed at obtaining greater performance and impact from the country's collective developmental initiatives.
The five key thrusts are:
* to move the economy up the value chain;
* to raise the capacity for knowledge and innovation and nurture 'first class mentality';
* to address persistent socio-economic inequalities constructively and productively;
