Emulate Penang’s public sector employment model to tackle civil service uproar

THE issue of public sector employment particularly the lack of non-Malay participation remains controversial and combustible.
Some irresponsible media twisted my recent argument of reforming the civil service by saying that I wanted the Malay monopoly to be broken.
This was not what I said and meant. And certainly, this is not what I envisioned for the future development of the country’s public service.
I merely wanted the recruitment of non-Malays to be improved to some extent, certainly not in the context of zero-sum game of placement and displacement.
Definitely, it was not about the question of robbing Peter to pay Paul. The example of the Penang state recent employment initiative might throw some light on what I said about reforming the civil service.
