E-Participation Policy

The purpose of this e-participation policy is to initiate a culture and practice of e-participation in order to enhance transparency and public involvement in improving the quality of services provided by Rembau District Council (MDR). MDR consistently recognizes public engagement to explore broader perspectives, sources of information, and potential solutions to enhance decisions and services. It also provides the foundation for productive relationships, better dialogue and discussions, and effective governance.

The objective of e-participation is to involve the people in the development policies and decision-making processes through the use of information and communication technology. Among the communication channels used are Online Surveys, Inquiry Feedback, Polls, Email, and MDR's Social Media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter.

Thus, MDR warmly welcomes participation while complying with the established terms and conditions as follows:

  1. Any statements that touch on sensitivities related to race, religion, and politics are strictly prohibited.
