Civil Servant meant to serve the public. <br /><br />But when you look at the parking space allocated to them are at the strategic place whilst public whom need the service at their office have to park further away and has to walk. Imagine if the senior citizen, alone to go to this gov office have to face the hussle. <br /><br />Cant they allotted specific parking for their staff but not at the strategic place except for the VIP.

But how could they get the best if members get members is done at the entry level. How are they to know they are capable?<br /><br />PTDs these days can hardly speak or write in ENglish or let alone Bahasa Malaysia.<br /><br />How can they be the best if their qualification is only public administration, usualuddin and religious studies or anthropology and some social sciences. Could they not get any lawyers, doctors, science students, MBAs and accountants to join? <br /><br />Apparently, some are sons and daughters of former senior civil servants and the selection is merely former bosses calling their former subordinates in high places.<br /><br />The PTD-PTA division system is obselete. Time to abolish this feudel system and democratise the process of entry to the civil service.<br /><br />Another disturbing happening that has yet to be addressed is retired senior servants joining private sectors as board members. Are their contribution useful or exist conflict of interest?Phd holding PTAnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-28471798278609557742017-02-04T19:42:47.435+08:002017-02-04T19:42:47.435+08:00A Voice,

The bloated 'Member-get-member' scheme PTD is practicing at the moment is a pathetic example the Malays are celebrating mediocrity.<br /><br />Who are those sitting in middle to senior PTD posts? Are they of Zain Azraii calibre?<br /><br />Many PTD officers can't even speak and write in proper English. <br /><br />My theory is for them to suppress their inability to cope with work demand, especially as Malaysia opens up for foreigners, these PTDs organised amongst themselves to create posts. That is why suddenly in so short of time, new posts of TKSUs, Divisional Secretaries, Directors appear in various Ministries' directories.<br /><br />Why the hell does a KSU requires 'Special Officers'??<br /><br />Did the information/reporting/feedback system within the Ministry gone unbearably bureaucratic in this age of ICT democracy that the Under Secretary of State requires officers at Division Secretary grade to help him do his work?<br /><br />And another thing which burns me. KSUs. TSKUs and other senior PTD officers are provided opportunities to do post graduate course. It is supposed to help them, as they are exposed to bigger and more strategic responsibilities as they go up the ladder.<br /><br />Well, good and fine. Even it is often said many used the maximum allowable space to stretch their opportunity to live abroad, like taking 4.5 or 5 years to do PhD.<br /><br />So why is it when the PTDs draw up this strategic plan to the Govt, they only do it for themselves? How come the same opportunities are not being drawn up for other persons employed to look after and manage Govt strategic interests?<br /><br />Eg. is those taking care of GLCs. Isn't better if GLC senior key people hv PhD from top notch schools in the UK and US? Wouldn't a PhD from LSE, UCL, Oxford, Stanford, MIT, Harvard, Wharton be a strategic addition to the existing FCCA, BEng, Bec or LLB qualifications of these GLC professional managers?<br /><br />I think there are more to complain. <br /><br />Good for you and Bigdog to attack this problem, which is one of the true hinderance to progress.Ex-AA & Co.http://www.mykmu.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-81428714174094851942017-02-04T15:20:36.830+08:002017-02-04T15:20:36.830+08:00Just look at the parking lot in government offices...Just look at the parking lot in government offices, 'kakitangan' will be nearest to the building or at the upper floors and 'pelawat' will be at the furthest spots or basement level 3 and 4 which reflect their attitude.Raja Kumbanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17833212224794549432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-26284517777963116012017-02-04T14:21:47.871+08:002017-02-04T14:21:47.871+08:00It is generally the problem with Malay temperament...It is generally the problem with Malay temperament. <br /><br />Though it applies to people of any race, the Malay majority in government had a created a negative work culture that is not suited with the time. <br /><br />It is prevalent among Malays in government to not serious, not diligent, and lack aptitude. To compensate their shortcoming, they resort to politicking, backstabbing, and corruption as shortcut to promotion, power and fortune.<br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-88591744132861232002017-02-04T14:14:28.940+08:002017-02-04T14:14:28.940+08:00These civil servants will never survive in the pri...These civil servants will never survive in the private sector.
