Defining Goals
As a producer of national
statistics, DOS realises its role
in providing statistical services
of international standards
through its vision and mission.
Since its inception, the
direction of the Department
is in accordance with its
functions as stipulated in the
Statistics Ordinance 1949. The
Department’s goals were then
accomplished based on short-
term programmes outlined
in its annual work plans. The
challenges in globalisation,
advancement in technology
and the increasing demand
of statistical products by users
have spurred DOS to formulate
a Five-Year Corporate Plan
commencing 1988.
The Corporate Plan which
charts the direction of the
Department is aligned to our
National Vision, the Five-Year
Malaysia Plans and Outline
Perspective Plans. The plan
also incorporated feedbacks
from meetings and discussions
with users and stakeholders.
