PRIME Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s announcement of a more than 13% increase in civil servants’ salaries, among the highest in Malaysia’s history, is a significant stride towards recognising the invaluable contributions of public sector workers.

The pay hike, effective Dec 1, signals the government’s commitment to addressing the long-standing disparities and ensuring fair compensation for civil servants, who indeed play a crucial role in driving the nation’s progress.
