Dengan keluasan 949.86 km persegi Ia ditadbir oleh dua agensi kerajaan iaitu Pejabat Daerah dan Tanah Slim River dan Majlis Daerah Tanjong Malim (MDTM). Kedua-dua institusi ini adalah merupakan nadi dan penghubung langsung antara Kerajaan dengan orangramai. Keberkesanan pentadbiran kedua-dua institusi ini melambangkan imej pentadbiran Kerajaan samada baik atau buruk. Majlis Daerah Tanjong Malim merupakan Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan bagi Daerah Kecil Slim River/Tanjong Malim ini. Sebagai Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan yang dikenali sebagai kerajaan ketiga iaitu yang paling hampir dengan rakyat sudah tentu hasrat kerajaan memerintah agar rakyat didahulukan pencapaian diutamakan diberi penekanan walaupun “pelbagai pihak” sedia maklum kekurangan dan kekangan yang ada pada pentadbir Pintu Masuk Utama selatan negeri Perak ini. Selama tiga dekad, pentadbir ini sedikit sangat dibantu untuk memakmurkan Pintu Masuk Utama Negeri Perak. Secara tidak langsung mengambarkan Perak seadanya walaupun tiga dekad yang telah berlalu itu begitu ramai yang ditauliahkan pangkat “Laksamana” dipersada pemerintahan Negara namun amat sedikit pula yang berbakti kepada Negeri tumpah darahnya. Negeri Perak hingga ke hari ini dan bandar-bandar pentingnya terus secara halus dilupa dan seolah-olah dipinggirkan. Walaupun suatu ketika dahulu negeri Perak pernah menjadi “Juara” dan “Big Brother” kerana kekayaan hasil buminya dan pemurah para pemimpinnya. Kini ia tinggal kenangan. Tanah yang dulunya kaya dengan Bijih Timah kini tinggal kolam-kolam yang kebanyakannya amat terhad penggunaannya.

  • Perak Gigih Atur Strategi Makmur Rakyat (Berita Harian 16/02/2004)
    16/02/2004 Perak gigih atur strategi makmur rakyat WAWANCARA khas dengan Menteri Besar Perak Datuk Seri Diraja Dr Tajol Rosli Ghazali sempena lawatan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi ke negeri Perak dan perasmian bangunan Umno Perak hari ini. SOALAN: Lawatan Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi ke Perak pada 16 Februari ini adalah lawatan rasmi pertamanya sebagai Perdana Menteri ke negeri ini. Sebagai Menteri Besar dan juga Pengerusi Perhubungan Umno negeri, bagaimana Datuk Seri melihat kepentingan lawatan ini? MB: Kami pernah menerima lawatan bekas Perdana Menteri, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad ketika beliau menjadi Perdana Menteri, begitu juga Datuk Seri Abdullah ketika beliau menjawat jawatan Timbalan Perdana Menteri. Bagaimanapun, lawatan rasmi Pak Lah ke Perak kali ini adalah sebagai Perdana Menteri. Memandangkan lawatan kali ini adalah lawatan rasmi pertamanya, sudah tentu kami akan meraikan dan mengalu-alukan pelantikan beliau sebagai Perdana Menteri. Pak Lah sudah memaklumkan kepada kami beliau mahu bertemu semua lapisan rakyat negeri Perak. Pada sebelah pagi, Pak Lah akan menghadap Sultan Perak. Selepas itu, kami membawa Pak Lah melawat Kampung Manjoi bagi melancar dan merasmikan Projek Perbandaran Manjoi iaitu kampung Melayu terbesar di negara ini dan beliau akan merasmikan upacara pecah tanah bagi projek perbandaran itu. Soalan: Datuk Seri pernah berkhidmat dengan Dr Mahathir dan Pak Lah. Melalui pengamatan Datuk Seri, apa perbezaan paling ketara antara kedua- dua pemimpin ini? MB: Pak Lah lebih bersikap terbuka, kita boleh berbincang dengan Pak Lah sebagai kawan atau adik beradik. Dr Mahathir juga agak terbuka tetapi apabila kita berbincang dengan beliau, kita lebih menghormatinya sebagai seorang bapa kerana mungkin wujudnya perbezaan usia.

  • The Spatial Configuration of Private Investments by Economic Actors in Perak
    The spatial configuration of private investments by economic actors in Perak A consideration of centricity of the regional urban system of Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia) Luka Raaijmakers (6314554) Under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven Faculty of Geosciences Department of Human Geography and Planning Master’s degree in Economic Geography Specialisation in Regional Development & Policy November 2019 Page | 2 Acknowledgements This thesis is part of the joint research project on regional urban dynamics in Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia). The project is a collaboration between Utrecht University (The Netherlands) and Think City Sdn Bhd (Malaysia), under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven and Matt Benson. I would like to thank dr Leo van Grunsven for his advice related to scientific subjects and his efforts to make us feel at home in Malaysia. Also, I would like to thank Matt Benson and Joel Goh and the other colleagues of Think City for the assistance in conducting research in – for me – uncharted territory. I would like to address other words of thanks to the Malaysian Investment Development Authority, Institut Darul Ridzuan and all other political bodies that have proven to be valuable as well as economic actors for their honesty and openness with regard to doing business in Malaysia/Perak. Finally, the fun part of writing a master’s thesis in Malaysia, apart from obviously living abroad on a vibrant island, was the part of doing research. This required a little creativity, some resilience and even more perseverance. This could not have been done without the other student members of the research team that took part in the collective effort of unravelling the urban system of Perak by using the knowledge we have gained in our years as academics.

  • Operations Review
    Operations Review PROTON’s MPV, the Exora, goes into production. PROTON 2009 ANNUAL REPORT 81 Operations Review The Group also anticipates strong local demand for the Persona and Saga, while export volume is expected to increase especially for the Exora with plans already in place to introduce this vehicle to the ASEAN market in the second half of 2009. Furthermore, with the expansion of the Overseas Manufacturing Plants in China and Iran, the export business on completely–knocked–down (CKD) vehicles is expected to increase as well. New robots and more sophisticated handling equipment were installed successfully with minimal line disruptions. Previous PROTON production systems and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) activities have already resulted in the main plant having one of the lowest downtimes in history and similar activities were implemented successfully in the Casting and Engine Transmission Department. Much effort was taken to maintain this. An increasing number of model lines or equipment was established through ‘yokoten’, a Japanese term which essentially means duplicating. The next stage in these intensive improvement activities will be the implementation of ‘Kobetsu Kaizen’ (which means ‘Focus Improvement’) and the usage of Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) as the de facto parameter to measure equipment efficiency. In view of PROTON’s commitment to improvement, the Manufacturing Division has started implementing the world-renowned practice of ‘Genba Kanri’, another Japanese term this time referring to ‘Shopfloor Control’. This is to reflect how the division is continuously improving itself by benchmarking PROTON against world-class industry players. We shall aim to reach level 4 (which means sustainable world-class level in shop control) in ‘Genba Kanri’ by the year 2011.
