Kota Kinabalu: Inclusive participation from all parties in the Ukhuwah Madani programme helps foster closer community engagement while serving as a platform for the people to better understand the government’s latest initiatives and efforts.

Akademi Kenegaraan Malaysia (AKM) Director-General Datuk Dr Roslan Hussin said the programme not only involved government agencies but also the private sector and non-governmental organisations, which played a role in conveying accurate information to the community.

“With this programme, they (the community) will be aware of the educational opportunities and spaces available, allowing them to directly access services provided by relevant parties and agencies,” he told Bernama after officiating the Ukhuwah Madani programme at Kampung Darau here.

Roslan added that mutual respect was a core principle of Malaysia Madani, and Rhursday’s programme, which brought together diverse groups, including youth, reflected Sabah’s strength.

“The agencies here play a crucial role in providing an accurate picture (of government efforts), rather than relying on information that may sometimes be misleading and cause public concern,” he said.
