The website's new look and feel offers a far more user friendly and informative format compared to the previous version which was a prototype that had undergone several trials.

"Through the exhibits on hand, the public will be able to take the opportunity to learn about a variety of facilities and services which are available and provided by the ministry and its departments, they can also utilise the website which will be launched today," the minister said.

The end user may now surf the website which the ministry plans to update in order to provide content such as up to date news and also the client charter agreements, which highlights the specific service deliveries rendered by the departments within the ministry.

For those who wish to obtain an in-depth view of the field of work carried out by the departments of the Ministry of Finance, are encouraged to attend the exhibits which will have specific content related to the various departments' field of expertise.
