KUALA LUMPUR, May 29 (Bernama) -- Civil servants must listen to the people's views on their service and serve with integrity, said the Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Mohd Sidek Hassan.
He said they should strive for continuous improvement and not be satisfied with the current level of performance though considered good.
"My hope is that all civil servants will give their best," he said in an interview on the "Isu Semasa Khas" live talk show on the RTM1 television channel here Monday night.
The 45-minute show moderated by Datuk Johan Jaafar touched on various issues concerning the civil service following the recent announcement of a pay hike for public sector employees.
Mohd Sidek told civil servants to constantly remind themselves that their responsibilities were also their duty to God.
"Every month we are paid a salary for our service ...as such we should do our jobs efficiently and with integrity," he said.
He also said that the changing environment required civil servants to be technology-savvy to enhance the delivery system.
He said that he himself was using the Internet and providing his e-mail address to enable the public to provide suggestions or make complaints to him.
On the effectiveness of the service delivery, he said the people could evaluate this for themselves by looking at the country's development over the last 50 years, which in a large part was due to the public sector's contributions.
He said the Malaysian public sector's clients did not only comprise the country's 27 million population but also the people of other countries including investors.
