PETALING JAYA: The Congress of Union of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs) is hoping the government will provide a festive allowance of RM500 for civil servants and RM250 for retirees.
Cuepacs president Adnan Mat said such assistance was given annually as a token of appreciation to civil servants to alleviate their burden in preparing for the festive season.
“We appreciate the recent early incentive payment of RM2,000 for civil servants.
“That provided some relief to public service members for early school expenses, Ramadan and preparations for Aidilfitri celebrations.
“However, if the government feels there is a need for a slight addition in the form of a festive assistance, as traditionally provided annually and never missed, we welcome it,” Bernama reported him as saying.
This tradition could be maintained but Cuepacs won’t demand for this payment, Adnan said after attending the Negeri Sembilan civil servants assembly officiated by menteri besar Aminuddin Harun in Seremban today. - FMT
