Policy consultation in Malaysia public service
Fazni Mat Arifin1, Nooraini Othman2.
The aim of this article is to discuss the process of public policymaking and how the policy consultation helps to elaborate the processes involved in enhancing cooperation among government agencies. Existing literature indicates that there has never been any research that studies in detail on the consultative process of the process of policymaking in the country’s public service. The only available guidance is in the National Policy on the Development and Implementation of Regulations to improve the decision-making process for policy implementation. Therefore, a further reference has been done to a qualitative study on the policymaking process of the proposed National Halal Policy. The study indicates that an effective consultative approach must be able to act as either a vehicle of communication or stakeholder management in the policy process. The framework of negotiation-based policy consultative informs clearly on what types of consultative process practiced by the country and how does it operate in promoting wider participation in the policy process.
