“The state government hops the bonus will ease the burden of civil servants in making preparations for Hari Raya Aidilfitri.
“At the same time, we also want to encourage civil servants to save for the future,” he said.

“Promises fulfilled” !!! NZ is ranked among the top in the world for democracy and non-corruption, we see clearly yr 55 years of tragedy. UMNO & BN are corrupt, criminal and evil to the bones. US$100 billion, not million, have been stolen, plundered or mismanaged. Massive corruption eg: The CM ruling 31 years in Sarawak. The world is calling for his arrest & PM Najib pretends everything is beautiful, promises fulfilled. Deceit, gerrymandering; state-controlled media; vote buying; phantom voters; postal votes; illegal immigrant voters; public resources & machinery used to get votes for incumbent gov’t.... using your tax money & money stolen from you to destroy you. Wake up Malaysia!
ReplyDeleteHow long would Mahathir, Najib, all the BN/UMNO/PBB cronies, MACC, Police chiefs last in a democratic country like NZ, UK or Canada? 1 month? In a neutral position, we see clearly your 55 years of tragedy. UMNO & BN are corrupt, criminal and evil to the bones. A hundred US$ billion, not million, have been stolen, plundered or mismanaged. Massive corruption eg: The CM ruling 31 years in Sarawak. The world is calling for his arrest & PM Najib pretends everything is beautiful, saying: Promises fulfilled!
ReplyDeleteBarisan’s collapse has started in a vicious spiral. Make sure you give Opposition 90% of the vote, the cronies will cling to 10%, then BN trim your 90% to 70% through: Gerrymandering. Frauds in electoral roll with aliens, duplicates & phantoms. Buying & bribing…all using your money!. Biased EC Chiefs from UMNO. Unfair monopoly of media, heli, vehicles, boats, venues & resources. All using your money to destroy you!
