A special task force set up by the Federal Land Development Authority (Felda) is conducting a study on the best possible ways to consolidate the authority’s finances and sustainability for the benefit of its settlers.

Felda chairperson Idris Jusoh (above) said the study is also aimed at working on weaknesses revealed in the White Paper that was tabled in Parliament in April last year.
“Many parties are of the view that the White Paper is still not good enough to resolve Felda’s issues, and that is why we need a study to get fresh views,” Idris said on Bernama TV’s ‘Ruang Bicara’ programme last night.
The study is expected to be completed within two months, after which its findings will be tabled in Parliament, he added.
“We obtained feedback from all stakeholders, including settlers, the next generation of settlers, banks and investors, all to ensure we create a new and better Felda model,” he said.
Idris said it was Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s hope that Felda continued to be sustainable and more independent in the future.
Felda, he said, was also planning to set up smart schools in its land schemes as part of efforts to offer more quality agriculture training for its new generation of settlers.

Seems PN is so paralysed by contemplating the future that they plan to relive what little Harapan achieved....then reverse it This is what’s known as Progressive Governance...Malaysia style While there is a serious need to review the whole Felda situation in the light of recent and future developments, a Harapan White Paper is hardly the place to start
