JEDDAH – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the government is reviewing all monopolies currently existing in the system to ensure that the public enjoys fair and better service.
Anwar said all ministries have been asked to study the rationale behind allowing monopolies so that there would be a fair assessment of the issue.
“The principle of transparent economic development warrants us to make some adjustments and shifts from what I consider to be chaotic and obsolete, and to cater to vested interests in terms of monopolies,” he said in a press conference at the end of his three-day visit to Saudi Arabia, here, today.
He was commenting whether the government is looking to unravel more monopolies following the decision to end Puspakom Sdn Bhd’s (Puspakom) monopoly on vehicle inspections.
