Mahdzir: Kemas staff involvement in politics an old practice


GUA MUSANG: The permission for Community Development Department (Kemas) staff to be involved in politics does not pose any issues as it had been the practice before, says Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid.

The Rural Development Minister said this was because Kemas teachers and supervisors are not from the “DG” grade category, compared to teachers under the Education Ministry who have a staffing structure that involves positions at the management level.
