pay hike 2

Pay hikes government servants feeling happy now. Cuepecs had done a good job but now they have to deliver their services to the tax payers. Last time I wrote a letter to the town council about a road with 2 names where the letter was personally delivered to the town council. It has been two years now I never got a reply but the road wth 2 names remain the same. Sometimes the government shouldnt give the pay hike to the state directors. DGs, town council presidents or secretaries...when they dont respond effectively to the taxpayers who indirectly pay their salaries through tax deductions. Now Najib says there wont be oil prices hike for now....I think the government will increase the petrol price and as usual will cite it as the cheapest in the regions.....toll will increase soon. And before one forgets our civil servants have increased in numbers now....instead of reducing it through e-government. It is the opposite for the country. The BN government is not doing its job to trim the civil service ....I guess it is the indirect way to hold on to power. These civil servants will feel indebted to the political masters in BN. The shopkeepers will wait for sometime before they hike their prices on goods. The minister concerned should walk the talk and visitsthe hawkers'stalls and look at their pricing....some had gone over 40% per bowl...because they know no government official to penalise them or fine them...Further the government should consider seriously trim down its fat civil servants. The numbers arent welcoming in the IT era.....the government is sleeping on its job in this area
