PMO To Lead By Example As Prime Govt. Agency
By CT Hj Mahmod

Bandar Seri Begawan - A Permanent Secretary at the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) yesterday stressed on the importance of PMO as the prime machinery of governmental administration to set itself as an exemplary organisation to others.

Pehin Dato Hj Dani bin Hj Ibrahim, Permanent Secretary at the Prime Minister's Office, said that this will enable the PMO to avoid the metaphoric perception of "The blind leading the sighted" or "Seperti Ketam MengajarAnalmya Berjalan Lurus".

He told this to senior government officers from various departments under PMO at yesterday's Hijrah 1426 celebration.

He believed that team spirit is the most important for the task and that duties bestowed upon them are the most challenging, particularly being the prime agency in the governmental administration.

Pehin Dato Hj Dani reiterated the important values of honesty, purity, and responsibility as the guideline for civil servants in carrying out their task and duties, in particular to resist the temptation of easily being influence by their greed.

Speaking on the importance of strategic plan, he said, "Departments and other agencies under PMO should review their respective Strategic Plans in order to be in line with PMO's strategic plan."

He advised those agencies that did not already have an existing strategic plan to act now, "for a strategic plan should be adopted as a management tool to advocate towards nation building, which goes in line with the aspiration of His Majesty's government".

Meanwhile, Awg Hj Abdul Majid bin Mangarshah, the Chairman of the organising committee for yesterday's Hijrah celebration, who is also the Acting Director of Narcotic Control Bureau, delivered his remarks outlining the important lessons of Hijrah year.

A religious talk was later delivered by Uztaz Awg Hj Mail bin Hj Besar on the "Concept of Hijrah in Work Performance: From Good to Excellence". -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
