Dato Sri Idris Jala, CEO of PEMANDU, talks about the economic transformation programme and his plans to revive private sector investment, PEMANDU's plans to get government to step aside, how the programs will sit alongside affirmative action as well as the GLC phenomenon.

He discusses how PEMANDU will convince the private sector to invest in Malaysia, the possibility of a revamp of the policy framework, and getting the civil service to buy into the transformation program.

He also dicusses the accountability structure, how transgressions are punished, the extent of PEMANDU's powers, the success measurability of the ETP as compared to the GTP.

He also discusses thepossibility of the day when -- if -- the current government is one day no longer in power and the fate of the transformation programs, the presence of 'champions'to drive development in the National Key Economic Areas, and how their credentials were established.

Dato Sri Idris also fields a number of callers, answering questions on subjects ranging from education to transport integration to corruption.
