Good news for Sarawak civil servants.
Chief Minister Abang Johari Tun Openg today announced a special payment of one-and-a-half-month basic salary or a minimum of RM2,000 to be paid by the end of this year.
He made the announcement in his winding-up speech at the Sarawak state legislative assembly sitting here.
Abang Johari said federal civil servants working in the state would also receive a one-off incentive of RM500 in the first quarter of 2021.
“During the Covid-19 pandemic, members of the Sarawak civil service and the federal civil service including doctors, nurses, health workers, uniformed bodies, immigration and other frontline personnel, have worked tirelessly to protect our rakyat. Alhamdulillah, the Covid-19 pandemic has been well contained to a manageable level.
“In doing so, they have risked their own safety and sacrificed their comfort. There are also countless other members of the civil service who are working behind the scenes, away from the glare of publicity but working diligently in their respective workplaces. To all of them, I say 'thank you',” he said. - Bernama
