Our managing director, Amir Isyam, has been featured in The Star with his thought-provoking article titled “The Key to a Future-Ready Civil Service.”

In the article, Amir examines Malaysia’s ambitious reform agenda to rationalise statutory bodies, GLCs, and CLBGs—a move aimed at reducing inefficiencies, improving governance, and paving the way for a more sustainable and prosperous nation. With every 31 sen of every ringgit spent on operating expenditures going to civil service salaries, he highlights the urgency for change while advocating for a balanced approach that includes fiscal discipline, strategic prioritisation, and phased implementation.

Amir also outlines the challenges ahead—managing displaced workers, addressing overlapping functions, and fostering public trust. Done right, these reforms could transform Malaysia’s public sector into a lean, innovative, and globally competitive force.
