PUTRAJAYA: The Bumiputera Economic Transformation Plan 2035 (Putera35) was launched today as a major shift in advancing Bumiputera development towards making Malaysia a regional economic leader.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (pic) who is also the Minister of Finance said that as times changes, the country needs a new plan that will drive the Bumiputera agenda to greater heights.

“The country should be driven with a more convincing level of speed, but at the same time, must not leave anyone behind.

“The idea is that the economic drive should be done with the participation of all people without marginalising any ethnicity, tribe or territory across the country,” he said when launching the Putera35 here today.

Putera35 was introduced to raise the status and dignity of Bumiputera in line with the aspirations of the Madani Economy: Empowering the People initiative and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (Agenda 2030) which will allow Malaysians to enjoy a better quality of life.
