SHAH ALAM, April 22 — Seventy-nine per cent of projects, programmes and initiatives (PPIs) under the First Selangor Plan (RS-1) have been fulfilled as of December 31, 2025, cementing the state’s role as a national growth engine, said Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari.
He added that the RS-1, launched in 2021, comprises 282 PPIs, with 65 per cent of them completed and some of them being medium- and long-term plans.
He also said the plan led Selangor to record an average annual growth of 7.9 per cent, exceeding the state’s initial target of a figure around the national average.
“Selangor is a state where more than half of its total investments come from local firms. This shows it no longer fully depends on foreign investments or investments abroad,” he said when met after the RS-1 Showcase at Wisma DNS here today.
Amirudin added that total investments add up to RM61.3 billion per year, reflecting high investor confidence in Selangor’s economic ecosystem.
The state’s economic value also reached RM432 billion in 2024 and is set to break RM450 billion in 2025, helping Selangor remain the biggest contributor to the national GDP.
“With the RS-1, we have always exceeded the federal growth rate. In fact, the forecast given for last year, 2025, is an unconfirmed forecast. We exceeded the growth rate at the federal level,” Amirudin said.
