Civil servants must avoid public rallies, says AG Mohd Dusuki
MACHANG: Civil servants must uphold discipline and avoid participating in public rallies to set a proper example, said Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar. He emphasised that involvement in such gatherings violates the civil service code of conduct, and department heads may take action against offenders. 'Such assemblies actually violate the code of conduct and discipline for civil servants. As public servants, we are supposed to set a good example, and I believe civil servants' involvement in these events does not serve any benefit,' Mohd Dusuki said after launching the Attorney-General's Chambers' Santuni MADANI programme at Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Pulai Chondong. The AGC has clarified that civil servants are bound by a directive from the Chief Secretary to the Government prohibiting participation in public assemblies. Mohd Dusuki also distributed RM3,000 in cash aid, a television set, batik cloths, and water bottles to over 1,000 villagers and students. Regarding the recent sentencing of motoring influencer Tengku Nizaruddin Tengku Zainudin and his brother Tengku Abdul Aziz, Mohd Dusuki stated that the AGC would review the matter but refrained from further comment as it remains under court jurisdiction. - Bernama

Civil Servants Must Set Good Example, Refrain From Joining Public Rallies
MACHANG, July 26 (Bernama) -- Civil servants must set a good example by refraining from participating in any assemblies organised by the public, said Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar. He said if any civil servant is found to have joined such gatherings, their respective department heads may take further action as it would constitute a breach of established rules. 'Such assemblies actually violate the code of conduct and discipline for civil servants. 'As public servants, we are supposed to set a good example, and I believe civil servants' involvement in these events does not serve any benefit,' he said after launching the Attorney-General's Chambers' Santuni MADANI programme at Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Pulai Chondong here today. Mohd Dusuki also handed over cash aid of RM3,000 and a television set to the school, as well as batik cloths and water bottles to over 1,000 villagers and students. The AGC had issued a statement explaining that civil servants are subject to a specific directive from the Chief Secretary to the Government prohibiting their participation in any public assemblies. Meanwhile, on the sentence handed down to motoring influencer Tengku Nizaruddin Tengku Zainudin and his brother Tengku Abdul Aziz yesterday, Mohd Dusuki said the AGC would look into the matter. 'I cannot comment at this time as it falls under the jurisdiction of the court. However, we will review the matter,' he said. -- BERNAMA

Santuni MADANI: Bernama Holds Workshop To Foster Creative Thinking Among Students
GENERAL SEPANG, June 24 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian National News Agency (Bernama) continues to play its role in encouraging creative thinking among students through the Creative Thinking Workshop held at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan (SMK) Batu Laut here today, in line with the Satu Pemimpin Satu Kampung (One Leader One Village) Santuni MADANI initiative. The one-day workshop aimed to boost students' self-confidence in generating new ideas while enhancing their higher-order thinking (HOT) and critical thinking skills, particularly in writing and problem-solving. Bernama Features Desk assistant editor Erda Khursyiah Basir, who conducted the workshop, said the activities received encouraging response and were effective in prompting students to think outside the box. 'They are very enthusiastic and eager to learn new things. For example, when they see a problem, they do not stick to just one solution. Instead, they think more openly and look at it from various angles. 'We also encouraged students to come forward and share their creative ideas and to speak up with confidence while also showing respect and courtesy when expressing themselves,' she said when met here. Meanwhile, SMK Batu Laut principal Johan Mohalana Abd Hamid said the programme played a significant role in boosting students' confidence and helping to improve their academic performance, especially in preparation for examinations. He said the exposure provided through the workshop could help students recognise their potential and assist them in choosing the right academic path and future career. Form Four student Nurul Izzah Zamri said the workshop was both fun and informative, with content presented in a clear and engaging way. 'I hope Bernama will continue to organise similar programmes to inspire creative and innovative thinking among students,' said the student, who aspires to become a surgeon.

Selangor govt will not compromise on 3R issues
SABAK BERNAM: The Selangor government will not compromise on issues relating to race, religion and royalty (3R), as such matters could undermine the state's harmony and unity. Selangor Rural Development, Unity and Consumer Affairs Committee chairman Datuk Rizam Ismail said issues involving racial and religious sensitivities must be handled firmly and wisely, given the state's role as a key national hub with a multiracial and densely populated society. 'Selangor must surely serve as an example, not only within the country but also to the world. Despite our ethnic diversity, we have managed to build a nation founded on strong unity. 'That is why we constantly work with the Ministry of National Unity through various awareness and unity programmes,' he said when officiating the closing ceremony of the Santuni MADANI and Misi Jelajah Peduli Ummah: Sejahtera Insan Al-Falah programmes at the As-Syukriah Mosque, Parit 8 Gambut, Sungai Panjang, here today. He said this in response to a news report yesterday, which cited data from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) stating that 40,515 pieces of potentially fake news content had been identified and reported by platform providers from 2023 until May this year. Of the total number, 11,819 were related to 3R content, of which 7,571 had been deleted. Rizam said one of the initiatives being actively implemented was strengthening the role of the Rukun Tetangga Areas, particularly in rural areas, to foster patriotism and racial unity. Meanwhile, he said no official complaints concerning 3R issues had been received so far, except for minor community-related matters that could be resolved locally. Earlier, Rizam said the programme organised by the Federal Territories Islamic Religious Department (JAWI), in collaboration with the Malaysian Consultative Council of Islamic Organisation (MAPIM), was seen as effective in bridging the gap between the people and government agencies, particularly in delivering services directly to the target group. He said the programme, which began yesterday (June 21), featured a range of beneficial activities tailored to different age groups, including health screenings, dakwah sessions, sports, e-sports competitions and exhibitions by government agencies. Meanwhile, JAWI director Hanifuddin Roslan, who was present at the programme, said the department had presented cash contributions of RM220 each to 253 asnaf (eligible tithe recipients) identified through the Selangor Zakat Board. In addition, he said the Zakat Collection Centre (PPZ) of the Federal Territories Islamic Religious Council (MAIWP) had presented mock cheques amounting to RM10,000 to the As-Syukriah Mosque, RM5,000 to five suraus under its supervision, and RM5,000 to the Desa Permai Parit 8 Quran and Fardhu Ain Integration Class. Hanifuddin said the programme was also JAWI's second corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative held this year outside its administrative area, with more locations to be included in the future.
