service are development - oriented; they place development above
their political parties and other considerations.
I am very happy that over the years, we have been able to build
the Civil Service, under the leadership of State Secretary, whose
members can work hand in hand with each other. The cooperation
between Federal and State civil service is very good and getting
better all the time. Admittedly, there are still differences in certain
areas that need to be ironed out from time to time. Since the time
of Tan Sri Datuk Amar Haji Bujang Mohd. Nor, as the State Secretary,
I have been having a civil service, which believes in consultative
approaches in formulating policies; the tradition is being carried
forward by successive state secretaries.
Generally, Sarawak has been growing by leaps and bounds in
terms of the infrastructure development and the overall progress
and advancement over the last 20 years. Besides, we have also been developing
our manpower very well as manifested in the quality of the civil service, which
is improving all the time.
The implementation of SCORE, which will stretch over 20 years, will bring
Sarawak to high income and knowledge economy by the year 2020 and beyond.
Then our income, in current term, should be ive times more than what it is
today. However, it also means it will be an intense work for us in
one generation in order to achieve the objective; but we have the
time and we can do it.
The Civil Service have been able to cope with heavier work
load because they have been able to change with the time and pick
up new tools of management over the years. Generally, the Civil
service has been able to improve the quality of service over the
years and the program for training and re-training is being escalated
for them. In other words, conscientious efforts are being made to
ensure that members of the civil service will remain adaptable to
changes and able to pick up new tools of management to enable
them to cope with the increasing volume of work.
