In a monumental show of commitment and leadership, Mohd Azad Jasmi, Chief Executive Officer of Permodalan Kedah Berhad (PKB), together with Prof. Dr. Rosmadi Fauzi, a distinguished Geographical Information Systems and Geo-Politics Expert from University of Malaya, sat down for a landmark interview with YAB Dato’ Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor, the revered Menteri Besar of Kedah, to wholeheartedly endorse the Greater Kedah vision – a groundbreaking initiative poised to elevate the state into a global developmental powerhouse.
Under PKB’s unwavering leadership, the Greater Kedah aspiration will be executed through an innovative, data-driven approach that transcends conventional development paradigms. The ambitious plan will ensure that each step of Kedah’s transformation is guided by Data-Driven Decision Making, where every plot of land, every development initiative, and every project will be strategically analyzed through precise data metrics, land-use elements, and their social impact. This transformative vision will center around optimizing the People’s Happiness Index, making Kedah not just a geographical location, but a model of socio-economic well-being.
In a bold move that echoes international best practices, PKB will be at the forefront of data-centric development, ensuring that every initiative is not only a catalyst for economic growth but also enhances the social fabric of the community. By leveraging cutting-edge data analytics and socio-economic research, PKB will pioneer a new era of smart, sustainable, and people-first development that will resonate across the nation.
The Greater Kedah vision is not just about infrastructure or economic growth; it is about transforming lives, fostering inclusivity, and making Kedah a shining example of what can be achieved when data, development, and human well-being intersect. Through this visionary approach, PKB is poised to redefine how we think about progress and create a legacy of success for generations to come. Kedah’s future is bright, and it begins today.
