KUALA LUMPUR: The Government Transformation Programme (GTP) can be
better implemented if the philosophy of giving commensurate reward can
be instilled among civil servants, Chief Secretary to the Government
Tan Sri Sidek Hassan said yesterday.
"What we should do and implement now is to instill the philosophy of
commensurate reward among all civil servants, not only among
secretaries-general or deputy secretaries-general or directors.
"This is necessary to inculcate the culture of giving one's best,
and whoever gives the best and performs the best deserves the best
reward," he said.
Likewise, he said, those who did wrong should also receive commensurate punishment.
He was speaking to Bernama after receiving a courtesy call by
Pakistan High Commissioner Tahir Mahmud Qazi, whose term as a council
member of the International Islamic University of Malaysia will end
soon, at the IIUM campus in Gombak today.
Commenting on a statement by Minister in the Prime Minister's
Department Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon last Tuesday that the government was
looking into introducing a reward and punishment model, Sidek said such
a system had been in existence for some time.
"In the government's administration, there is a reward and
punishment system, it's only that maybe we have not implemented it
fully," he added.
On promotion, Sidek said it should not be based on seniority alone but also on merit and discipline of the officers concerned.
