SUBANG JAYA – The Selangor government will review its decision to cancel the policy of appointing contract civil servants who have served for more than 15 years to permanent positions.

Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said the matter would be discussed during the state government meeting this Friday and the decision would then be announced by the state secretary.

“I will check back with the (decision at the meeting) to find out the policies that have been considered and implemented… wait for the state government management under the state secretary to make a statement soon.

“Allow me to get the verification first,” he said when met after launching the Selangor Education Strategic Plan (Selestari) 2023-2030 and Yayasan Selangor’s new logo here today.

Earlier, the Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services in a statement expressed regret at the Selangor government’s decision to cancel the policy, describing the move as drastic and a denial of the contribution of government contract employees. 

On Selestari 2023-2030, Amirudin said the launch underscores Yayasan Selangor’s role as the main institution that oversees education development in the state.

“... Moving forward the planning involving primary, secondary, and higher education as well as TVET (technical and vocational education and training) will be maintained and monitored by Yayasan Selangor,” he said.

Selestari includes several components to mend and improve the state’s education system in addition to drawing up strategies involving all existing education resources. – Bernama, June 13, 2023
