2 times 5 = MP Jasin??

Kereta idaman Datuk

So what's Datuk Mohd Said up to? He is trying to clean up his own mess or is he diverting attention? So it's ok for him to tell Customs to close one eye, but it's not ok for ex-government officers to work for contractors of Govt. 2 kali lima je. He needs a better political advisor to advise him on how to create political mileage or maybe he doesn't have one. MPs, where's the follow up? You're gonna let this guy get away with the timber import? Kalau politician ada girlfriend, gossip satu bulan, but on more serious issues, buat tak tahu.

MP: Ex-senior government staff should not deal with former departments

By NIK KHUSAIRI IBRAHIM

PENANG: Jasin MP Datuk Mohd Said Yusof said retired senior government officers should be barred from taking up positions in private companies dealing with their former agencies.

He cited an example of some retired senior Customs officers who were now working as advisers to a well-known company that import and assemble cars.

“Their job is to make sure the process of bringing in foreign cars runs smoothly. Networking with former subordinates and colleagues works to their advantage,” he said.

Citing another example, he alleged that a retired senior Immigration officer had been appointed an adviser to an agency involved in securing foreign workers.

Mohd Said, who made headlines in June after allegedly calling Customs officials to “close an eye” on the size of the logs his company imported from Indonesia, said it was wrong for retired officers to take advantage of their networking within the agency for the benefit of the company they were working for.
