Kuching, Sept 8, 2012: Public Service Commission Chairman Mahmood Adam has been challenged to disclose details of successful applicants in the civil service for the public’s consumption.
PKR National Wanita vice head Voon Shiak Ni today said:”Let the public knows the statistics of successful applications, instead of arguing that the public service commission has been trying to be fair in the allocation of job opportunities for all Malaysian in the civil service in the past years.”

Voon dismissed Mahmood’s claim that the Chinese do not want to work in the civil service because of the low salary and other benefits.
“That statement is not true,” she said, adding that many school leavers have applied to join the civil service because it is stable.
“Moreover, most parents want stability in jobs for their children, which the civil service can provide,” she said.
Voon stressed that Mahmood should not mislead the public that more Chinese have applied to join the civil service following a series of campaigns by the commission.
“But the issue is not about the number of applications so Mahmood should not mislead the public.
“We are more concerned about the percentage of successful applicants among the Chinese by the commission,” she added.
She stressed:”If the government is sincere, as claimed by Mahmood in providing equal job opportunities for all Malaysians, then he should prove it by giving out the statistics of all successful applicants.”
She asked whether the government has been fair in taking the applicants from other Malaysians into the civil service.
Voon said that the government should come up with better policies for all Malaysians, instead of stating the number of applications as it does not lend any weight or voices to the people’s concerns.
On Mahmood’s claims that there are 7000 vacancies in the civil service, Voon urged him to publish the racial break-downs of those who have been accepted. By Sematong Express
