01:42 There are various special offers. To implement the 3K strategic mission,

01:50 we are proud to introduce the basic human resources framework for a country that is committed to Malaysia.

01:59 This basic framework will be launched by YAB PMX in a short while.

02:06 This document will be produced after taking into account the feedback of the stakeholders and the public
