Anwar set to deliver important address to civil servants tomorrow
KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is set to deliver a major address to Malaysia's civil servants at the 20th edition of the Majlis Amanat Perdana Perkhidmatan Awam (MAPPA XX) tomorrow, held at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC). Dr Saharah Sapiyi, Head of the Centre for Communication and Language Studies at the National Institute of Public Administration (Intan), said the prime minister's address, scheduled for 3.30pm, will be the highlight of the annual event. "MAPPA XX provides a key platform for the prime minister to engage directly with civil servants and communicate his vision for the nation. It is typically where major announcements related to the civil service are made. "Last year, the prime minister unveiled the Public Service Remuneration System (SSPA), and this year, we have been informed that new announcements will be made, including the launch of the Public Service Talent Development Policy, which will serve as a guide for heads of departments and agencies in nurturing talent within their organisations," she said during a video call on Bernama TV's Malaysia Petang Ini programme. Saharah added that this year's MAPPA would be held under the theme Perkhidmatan Awam MADANI Teras Kecemerlangan (Madani Civil Service: Pillar of Excellence), which highlights not only leadership aspirations but also a reflection of the core Madani values guiding Malaysia's current governance reforms. "The event also emphasises the civil service reform agenda led by the Chief Secretary to the Government, alongside values-driven service excellence promoted by the director-general of Public Service," she said. Saharah said prior to the main address, civil servants attending MAPPA XX would be invited to participate in the Tazkirah Jumaat (religious reflection session) at 12.45 pm, followed by Friday prayers at Dewan Putra, PICC, which can accommodate up to 1,000 worshippers. Other activities in conjunction with MAPPA XX include the Cakna Inspirasi Forum at 2.30pm, focusing on social media and the spirit of independence, as well as 43 exhibition booths showcasing ministries, government agencies, and departments from 9am to 5pm. These booths will feature services such as traffic summons payment and discounts, as well as admissions information from higher education institutions. - BERNAMA
