PSD launches kit to boost civil service understanding
In a statement today, PSD said that the initiative, launched by Public Service director-general (KPPA) Tan Sri Wan Ahmad Dahlan Abdul Aziz, was part of the ongoing efforts to strengthen the Public Service Reform Agenda.
According to the department, the kit is also in line with the aspirations of the Madani core values and the H.E.M.A.T. principles within the framework of the Hijrah Tata Kelola values.
"It also aims to strengthen competency development to be more competitive, inclusive, and competitive in supporting the Public Service Reform Agenda towards greater excellence," it said.
It said that the Public Service Kit was a specific guide outlined to strengthen the understanding of civil servants, especially newly appointed officers, of the country's administrative system, starting from the appointment phase, service to the retirement phase.
According to the PSD, the kit is an important platform to accelerate the process of adapting officers to the public service ecosystem effectively and competitively.
It said four principles were arranged as the main thrust of the implementation of the kit, namely clear initial guidance; introduction to duties and responsibilities; exposure to rights and benefits; and information on administrative procedures.
"With the determination to produce competent, efficient and credible civil servants, the PSD is committed to strengthening the public sector through the preparation of comprehensive policies and regulations.
"This effort is to form a human capital that is magnanimous, knowledgeable, highly skilled, has integrity and performs well to ensure that the public sector continues to be the pillar of the country's progress and prosperity," it said.
The Public Service Kit can now be officially accessed through the Public Service Department's Official Portal at the link https://docs.jpa.gov.my/docs/flipbook/KIT-PERKHIDMATAN-AWAM/4/

Defence ministry expands G2G MoUs to curb middlemen in asset procurement
KUALA LUMPUR: The Defence Ministry is enhancing international cooperation through Government-to-Government (G2G) Memorandums of Understanding for defence procurement. Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin stated this approach eliminates intermediaries in acquiring national defence assets. 'The MADANI government remains consistent in its efforts to improve governance and ensure transparency, including in purchases of national defence assets,' he said. His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia, earlier warned against repeating past procurement errors during Rejimen Gerak Khas' 60th anniversary parade in Mersing. The monarch stressed evaluations must prioritise market prices and armed forces' needs over third-party recommendations. Mohamed Khaled affirmed the ministry's commitment to accountability and integrity in defence acquisitions. Internal policies are being tightened to enforce transparency and ethical compliance in procurement processes. New proposals will involve the Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) to assess suitability, safety, and technological relevance. 'Any procurement of defence assets is also made based on MAF requirements or user-driven,' he clarified. Market price assessments will precede purchases to ensure cost efficiency, he added. - Bernama
