| Summary: | This report is part of the series
focusing on documenting the lessons from Malaysia for other
developing countries in improving their public-sector
management. These lessons include those at the center of
government, such as the delivery unit method applied to the
implementation of the national priorities, or implementing
the elements of performance-based budgeting, as well as
deeper analysis of specific approaches in various sectors.
Strategies for improving public sector performance will
differ in education, health, public transport, or land
administration. Yet at this sectoral juncture, public sector
management has the most direct impact on service delivery
and citizens’ outcomes. This report focuses on land policies
and land administration services because they are key for
good governance. They are fundamental for secure land
rights, developing land markets and managing land resources
in a manner that best contributes to economic growth,
efficient public sector service delivery, environmental
protection, and social cohesion and security. Land and
buildings generally represent between half and three
quarters of the national wealth in all countries. The
importance of secure land rights and good land
administration have been recognized in several international
forums including the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs), the United Nations Committee on Food Security and
the World Bank and International Federation of Surveyors
(FIG) Fit for Purpose Land Administration publication. |
