The government plans to recruit private sector executives to run state agencies in a move to inject fresh momentum into the bureaucracy, an aide to the prime minister said Tuesday.

"We must bring in fresh air in the government," HT Imam, the adviser to the prime minister on establishment and administrative affairs, said.
