MAMPU To Showcase 2 NBOS Initiatives Datuk Seri Zainal Rahim SemanPUTRAJAYA, Aug 12 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Administrative Modernisation and Management Planning Unit (MAMPU) will showcase its two National Blue Ocean Strategy (NBOS) initiatives at the International Conference on Blue Ocean Strategy, here, next week. MAMPU director-general Datuk Seri Zainal Rahim Seman said the initiatives were the 1Malaysia Training Centre (1MTC) and 1Malaysia One Call Centre (1MOCC). "The event which will be held back-to-back with CAPAM (Commonwealth Association for Public Administration and Management) at the same venue, is the best platform for Malaysia to share its experience as the pioneer country in adopting the NBOS," he said in an interview with Bernama, here, today. The International Conference on Blue Ocean Strategy themed 'Transforming Nations through Creativity and Innovation' will be held at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) from Aug 16 to 18 and CAPAM 2016 from Aug 18 to 20. CAPAM was established in 1994 to facilitate the sharing of information and best practices between the public administrations of Commonwealth countries, in addition to promoting good governance in the government. It will be Malaysia's third time to host the biennial conference after 1998 and 2014. Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Dr Ali Hamsa is the current CAPAM president. Apart from MAMPU's NBOS initiaves, Zainal Rahim said Malaysia had implemented over 90 NBOS initiatives to address a wide range of economic and social issues, among others. The 1MTC project allows the use of existing training facilities at the Institute of Public Instruction (ILA) and its use can be optimised by various parties. The 1MOCC is a single point-of-contact centre to answer any public enquiry, complaint, suggestion and feedback via phone call, short message service (SMS), fax, email and social media. The government has been giving a big push since 2009 for the implementation of NBOS, which is based on the principles of high impact, low cost and rapid execution, allowing to quickly deliver important projects that benefit the people of Malaysia in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. Other NBOS initiatives include the Urban Transformation Centre (UTC), Rural Transformation Centre (RTC), Community Rehabilitation Programme, joint patrols by the Royal Malaysian Police and Malaysian Armed Forces, Mobile Community Transformation Centre and 1Malaysia For Youth Entrepreneurs. -- BERNAMA .
