Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs

The Ministry of Municipal & Rural Affairs (MoMRA) is the central governmental organization entrusted with the oversight and regulation of municipalities across the country's cities, towns, and villages. MoMRA is currently leading the development of the municipal sector through the 4-year Municipal Transformation Program (MTP): a sector-wide, across-the-board overhauling and upgrading of municipal performance nationwide. The MTP ultimately aims for sustainable cities and communities that ensure developmental equilibrium between the economy, communities , and the environment, and which form the essential urban foundation and platform to enable the implementation of the whole-of-government National Transformation Program (NTP) toward the realization of Vision 2030.
