Helping government staff with low incomes

KUALA LUMPUR: The Government is looking at ways to increase the income of lower-ranking civil servants, many of whom live in poverty upon retirement. 

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi was sensitive to the plight of these civil servants who received a pension of RM1,000 and below when they retired.
