He said this matter had not only been voiced by the Prime Minister but  also by leaders such as the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and the Sultans.\u201cThe civil service already has an internal mechanism such as internal  audit and the integrity unit, and is constantly being monitored by the  Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif\">\u201cHowever, all these have failed to curb corruption because there are  still those who are willing to give and accept bribes,\u201d he said. Meanwhile, Cuepacs president Datuk Azih Muda said civil servants irrespective of rank must deliver the goods.\u201cThe call by the Prime Minister must be taken seriously because each  allocation made must reach the target groups and not be spent midway,\u201d  he said. \u2014 Bernama<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Malaymail 10\/1\/2017 KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 10 \u2014 Government departments and civil servants have been urged drop their culture of working in silos in order to make 2017 the year of delivery for the benefit of the people.Head of the National Council of Professors\u2019 Governance, Law and Public Management Cluster, Prof Dr Nik Ahmad Kamal Nik [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":268,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-708","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-dari-cuepacs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/268"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=708"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=708"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=708"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/persatuan.utm.my\/kkautm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=708"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
