Wan Azizah: Rightsizing of civil service won't touch 1% quota reserved for the disabled

PETALING JAYA: The government's plan to rightsize the civil service will not affect the 1% employment quota set aside for persons with disabilities (PWDs), says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail.

The government will continue to preserve these posts for the PWDs, as it aims to recruit more differently-abled people, said Dr Wan Azizah, who is also Women, Family and Community Development Minister.
