carry out special duties at Jabatan Perdana Menteri (JPM). There are twenty-three ministries in
portfolio ministry as in 2014. Malaysia’s Prime Minister, Y.A.B. Dato’ Sri Mohd. Najib Bin Haji
Abdul Razak was the ministers of finance. He was assist by the second ministers of finance that

functions of department is related to implementation of policy form by the government and
involve in providing services to society which cover social, security, development, and other
