KUALA LUMPUR: With the first important business being the passing of a mini-budget next month, the Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs) has called for the new government to maintain all initiatives for civil servants announced in Budget 2023.
Its president Datuk Adnan Mat said the initiatives, announced by former prime minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob on Aug 30, were what was promised to the civil servants.
Adnan said the union did not want a repeat of what happened in 2018 when the premised initiatives were not fulfilled following a change of government in the 14th General Election. On the disappointment of civil servants in 2018, Adnan said it should not have happened because as an employer, the government could not withdraw its initiatives after all the sacrifices civil servants made in carrying out their responsibilities as the country’s administrative machinery.
