In the independent survey on the PH ministers' communication strategy by communications agency Citrine One Sdn Bhd, Malaysians were asked an open-ended question of which minister communicated his or her policies best, and to provide the reasons for the ministers named.

Lim Guan Eng, finance minister

Out of the 20 ministers and deputy ministers that were named by respondents, Dr Mahathir came in first with 43 votes, followed closely by Anthony Loke at 41, finance minister Lim Guan Eng at 24 votes and communications and multimedia minister Gobind Singh Deo at 22.

Ivlynn Yap, Citrine One's managing partner highlighted minister Yeo Bee Yin's preparedness and Gobind Singh Deo's responsiveness as contributing to them being viewed as good communicators of their ministries' policies.

The survey respondents commonly described their top five Cabinet picks as being clear, precise, concise, consistent and making no U-turns when communicating their policies.

The other ministers named by survey respondents as communicating their policies best include education minister Maszlee Malik at nine votes, followed by eight votes for both youth and sports minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman and deputy prime minister Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail.

In summing up the comments by the respondents, Citrine One noted the general feedback received was that the new ministers were merely announcing their plans rather than actually communicating and that the public expects them to properly explain their policies based on a reliable roadmap to justify their position as a credible improvement from the previous government with the latter practice being allegedly absent so far.
