Kota Kinabalu: Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Hajiji Noor urged all civil servants to focus on implementation of the state government’s development agenda with professionalism.
Hajiji, at his first post-Cabinet meeting with heads of department and GLC yesterday, said the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) government won the mandate of the people and he wanted all civil servants to put aside their differences to support the government of the day.
“The GRS government took over at a challenging time due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many government programmes and activities had to be to postponed but as soon as this pandemic subsides, we will ensure all development plans will proceed,” he said in a statement, today.
Hajiji has been determined to keep abreast of state affairs since reporting for work after his bout with COVID-19 by calling for briefings and updates from all heads of department and GLC.
Among others, he has called for briefings from the Sabah Foundation, Sabah Credit Corporation, Sabah Energy and the Federal Development Office, Sabah.
Hajiji said his priority was also to ensure that all important positions in the government and agencies were promptly filled and helmed to ensure the business of the day could proceed seamlessly.
At the grassroots level, the state government appointed 44 Community Development Leaders recently with 29 more to be appointed including Community Development Officers and Village Security and Development Committee.
