THE government will make sure that opportunities under the Shared Prosperity Vision 2030 will be made available only to those who can produce results, said Dr Mahathir Mohamad today.

The prime minister said they should prepare themselves with training and necessary skills when given opportunities by the government. 

“What happened in Vision 2020, when we gave them opportunities, they sold off the opportunities, they got rid of the opportunities, they wanted quick money. This caused the vision (2020) to be unachievable,” he said at the question-and-answer session at the Institute of Strategic and International Studies (Isis) Praxis Conference 2019 in Kuala Lumpur. 

He said Malaysians need to respond accordingly towards incentives or programmes outlined in the Shared Prosperity Vision 2030 in order for it to be successful.

Wrong attitude needs to be eliminated, he said when responding to a question from Bernama chairman Azman Ujang on the effectiveness of programmes implemented under Vision 2020. – Bernama, October 21, 2019.
