Selangor aims to achieve a RM500 billion economy by 2030 as part of its new five-year development plan, RS-2. The plan includes initiatives to create high-paying jobs, expand affordable housing, improve public transport, and strengthen climate resilience. Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari unveiled RS-2 at the Selangor State Legislative Assembly, stating it serves as the state government's official policy document for development over the next five years.
The plan consists of 98 initiatives under six missions and 25 priority areas. RS-2 also prioritizes narrowing development gaps between districts, improving public services, and fostering a more inclusive society. The six missions under RS-2 are to drive economic leadership, promote balanced development, build a caring state, develop human capital, create a sustainable and resilient state, and establish an effective government.
Key targets for 2030 include strengthening the state economy, increasing household incomes, expanding affordable housing, enhancing public transport usage, improving climate resilience, and accelerating digitalisation of government services. The plan also considers global economic uncertainties, the impact of the West Asia conflict, climate change, advancements in artificial intelligence, and the need to strengthen Selangor's economic resilience.
