Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh and Salam Sejahtera.
First of all, let us express our gratitude to Allah SWT because with His permission and abundant grace we can gather this morning in the Mayor's Mandate Ceremony in conjunction with the New Year 2024.
It is still not too late for me to wish Happy New Year to all the employees of the Iskandar Puteri City Council (MBIP) and Happy Thaipusam to the Indian employees. It is hoped that this year 2024 will be a more outstanding year than the previous years.

MBIP's Total Revenue reached 98% of what was estimated, which increased by 12% compared to 2022. Well done and congratulations. Without the cooperation of all employees, surely this figure could not be achieved.

2023 ACTIVITIES
I would like to thank the Council Members and all MBIP employees for their involvement in executing or organizing programs. However, I see the involvement of employees in the programs we run is quite low and needs to be improved.
Therefore, I hope that this year, all employees can give full commitment to get involved and promote our programs to the community.
JOHOR BERSIH CAMPAIGN
In conjunction with the Johor Bersih campaign, a total of 79 Plogging and 'Jalan Angkat' involving all Council Members' Zones were successfully organized with the community. A total of 56,882kg equivalent to 57 tons of garbage was successfully collected. I believe that with continuous commitment from all parties, in God's will, we can succeed the Johor Bersih agenda, in line with the aspirations of YAB Menteri Besar of Johor.

Not only limited to the SISPAA System, MBIP also has various other complaint channels such as the Whatsapp application and the Resident Committee through their respective Council Members.
The Public Complaints Bureau (BPA) has also developed the “Respons Rakyat” application, which is an online digital complaint channel that can be accessed by all sections of society.
This new channel makes it easier for the public to make complaints, give suggestions, ask questions and channel their appreciation to ministries and public sector agencies more quickly and transparently. This “Respons Rakyat” application can be downloaded through the play store and apps store on smartphone devices.
Nevertheless, I also call for all departments to patrol continuously to identify occurring damages such as malfunctioning lights, potholes, dangerous trees, long grass and clogged drains.
Through MBIP's “Skuad Hero” and Southern Volunteer Iskandar Puteri, MBIP is always ready to help the community, especially when it involves disasters such as floods, fallen trees, fires and others, as the saying goes ‘shoulders carry, heart supports’.
Also recently, our SV team has provided assistance in the Kota Tinggi District Post-Flood Mission for 5 days from 12 to 16 January 2024. Thank you for all the services and devotion you have given not only to this organization but also to the community in need.
