CHIEF Secretary Datuk Seri Dr Ismail Bakar (pic) was excellent in his meet the press session last Friday. We have not heard much about him or his views on how he would lead the 1.6 million civil servants whom we all help to support through our taxes and our hopes and prayers.

As Dr Ismail rightly pointed out during the session, the huge civil service is the “backbone of the administration” and it needs to make adjustments to serve the country better. He highlighted the top priorities he would focus on, including political neutrality and corruption, which is a scourge in the civil service.
