By Izam Said Ya'akub

Bandar Seri Begawan - The launch of HR21 yesterday saw another illustrious chapter opened for the Ministry of Development and the milestone Human Resource Management System could go along way in helping the Ministry achieve its vision and goal.

Minister of Development, Pehin Orang Kaya Hamzah Pahlawan Dato Seri Setia Awang Haji Abdullah bin Begawan Mudim Dato Paduka Haji Bakar cited human resources as being key and critical for any organisation, and in particular to realise the Ministry's vision of "Quality Living; Sustainable Development; Prosperous Nation".

"In our efforts to realise the vision of this Ministry, we utilise a variety of systems... However no matter how good and, elaborate the system if the users do not have the capabilities required, then the results will not be as desired," said Pehin Dato Awg Hj Abdullah.

"Development must be implemented wisely, to ensure that it is sustainable," said the Minister, reminding that any development that takes place now will have an impact on further generations as well as the current one. "I hope that each member of this Ministry can appreciate what is laid out in the vision statement."

Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Development, Awg Hj Mohd Rozan bin Dato Paduka Hj Mohd Yunos, said in his opening remarks that should the aspects above not be undertaken with professionalism, it would impact negatively on the organisation.

Designed in house by the Ministry of Development, HR21 caters towards the Human Resource Planning, Human Resource Management and Human Resource Development needs of the Ministry. HR21 is able to make online reports and analyses, amongst others it is capable of handling a variety of human resource modules, which include Career Progression Analysis and Succession Planning Analysis to Manpower analysis, appraisals, personnel data, and also training and development needs.

"What's more the HR 21 system is dynamic, in which it can continuously be expanded in accordance to the needs and developments in due time," said Hj Mohd Rozan. The initiative which kicked off in August 2007 was approved by the top level of management in January this year. Next month will see the implementation within the Ministry of Development, with further briefing and workshops. -- Courtesy of The Brunei Times
