JERANTUT 18 April - Angkatan Koperasi Kebangsaan Malaysia Berhad (Angkasa) mengalu-alukan cadangan Kongres Kesatuan Pekerja-pekerja Di Dalam Perkhidmatan Awam (CUEPACS) untuk mewujudkan pangkalan data berpusat bagi menapis semua jenis permohonan pinjaman oleh penjawat awam.Presidennya, Datuk Abdul Fattah Abdullah berkata, cadangan berkenaan dilihat relevan bagi mengelak penjawat awam memiliki jumlah pinjaman melebihi 60 peratus daripada baki gaji mereka.

“Kita mencadangkan supaya satu sahaja agensi yang dilantik untuk menyelaras permohonan pinjaman ini bagi mengelakkan berlakunya tekanan hutang dalam kakitangan awam yang teruk,” katanya kepada pemberita selepas merasmikan Persidangan Negeri Angkasa Pahang Zon 2 di Pusat Latihan Teknologi Tinggi Temin di sini, hari ini.

Jumaat lalu, CUEPACS dilapor menyarankan Jabatan Akauntan Negara mewujudkan satu pangkalan data berpusat untuk menapis semua jenis permohonan pinjaman oleh penjawat awam.Presiden CUEPACS, Datuk Azih Muda berkata, langkah itu perlu dilakukan sebelum Jabatan Akauntan Negara meneruskan hasrat untuk melaksanakan sekatan bayaran potongan gaji penjawat awam sehingga maksimum 60 peratus daripada jumlah gaji kasar menerusi sistem gaji berkomputer.

Menurut Abdul Fattah, Angkasa turut menawarkan diri untuk memberikan kemudahan bagi menyelaras permohonan pinjaman itu. Katanya, Angkasa memiliki sistem kawalan bersepadu yang boleh membantu bukan sahaja kakitangan kerajaan malah pemohon pinjaman lain.

Dalam perkembangan lain, beliau berkata, Angkasa juga mengalu-alukan cadangan Suruhanjaya Koperasi Malaysia (SKM) bagi memudahkan penubuhan sesebuah koperasi dalam usaha menggalakkan lebih banyak koperasi berdaya saing di negara ini.

“Galakan ini selari dengan matlamat kerajaan yang menyasarkan sekurang-kurangnya 16,000 koperasi ditubuhkan menjelang 2020.“Sehingga kini, sebanyak 13,500 koperasi ditubuhkan di seluruh negara dengan keahliannya seramai lapan juta orang,” katanya. - UTUSAN ONLINE

CUEPACS SLAMS MAHATHIR OVER PRIVATISATION IDEA

The former PM created a mess when he privatised government agencies, says the president of the civil service union.

PETALING JAYA: Cuepacs has warned of dire consequences if the government were to privatise its agencies in an attempt to trim down the civil service, as suggested recently by former premier Mahathir Mohamad.

Many would lose their jobs because the new companies would hire as few people as possible to cut costs, said Azih Muda, president of the civil service union. He said this would be especially true if privatisation was carried in the current economic climate.

“We are thankful that we are no longer under Mahathir’s administration because, if we are, the civil service would be in a mess right now,” he told FMT.“Private companies are profit-oriented. When faced with a bad economy, they will downsize their operations and let go of their employees.

“And they would, of course, prefer to hire and keep foreigners or expatriates rather than locals.”

Mahathir last Friday said the privatisation of government agencies during his time as prime minister resulted in savings on salary bills.“But he failed to ensure the well-being of those who worked in the agencies that were privatised or guarantee their long-term employment,” said Azih.

“He created a mess when he privatised, among other agencies, those that provided electrical, telecommunications and water services.“Maybe Mahathir was thinking from the point of view of those at the higher levels. That’s why he could turn a blind eye to the repercussions against those of us who are at the lower levels.” The Malaysian civil service is believed to be the largest in the world in proportion to the country’s population.

PUTRAJAYA: The Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs) has called for the government to take legal action against the perpetrator of the deceptive video recording of Bukit Selambau Health Clinic.

Cuepacs president Datuk Azih Muda has labelled the act as irresponsible and disappointing.

“On behalf of Cuepacs, I want to express my disappointment about the incident. The video recording was done by an irresponsible party. We will write in to the Attorney-General’s Chamber and propose a legal action against the person who recorded the video and spread it on social media,” Azih told reporters at a press conference this afternoon.

In expressing his regret over the man’s behaviour, Azih reiterated that the clinic on that particular day had only one officer on duty even though there are three medical officers stationed there. One was away for training and the other was off-duty. “It’s just a small clinic. There are only three doctors working in that small clinic and when the patient concerned walked in for treatment, they had only one hospital assistant helping them but they did their best to help the patient.”

Azih wants the relevant authorities to conduct a thorough investigation on the case and take legal action against the culprits, adding that they will also suggest some form of legal protection for government institutions.In the two-part video, which has since gone viral, a man was seen berating staff at the clinic for allegedly being late in attending to patients. It has been widely circulated since April 7 in an attempt to expose the supposedly poor services at the clinic.

The Kedah Health Department has denied that the staff at Bukit Selambau Health Clinic had failed to provide medical treatment promptly as suggested in the video.It was understood that the culprit, who had gone to the clinic with the patient, had kicked up a fuss and even threatened the staff for their alleged tardiness.

KERAJAAN KENA KAWAL HARGA RUMAH: CUEPACS

MUAR - Kongres Kesatuan Pekerja-pekerja Dalam Perkhidmatan Awam (Cuepacs) mencadangkan pihak kerajaan untuk menubuhkan sebuah badan berkaitan berperanan mengawal harga rumah bagi membolehkan penjawat awam memiliki kediaman sendiri.

Presidennya, Datuk Azih Muda berkata, perkara itu perlu diperhalusi berikutan pihaknya kini menerima sehingga 40 peratus aduan membabitkan permohonan membeli rumah oleh kakitangan kerajaan yang ditolak.

"Kami menerima banyak aduan daripada penjawat awam berkaitan permohonan pinjaman untuk membeli kediaman sendiri ditolak samaada melalui bank atau Lembaga Pembiayaan Perumahan Sektor Awam (LPPSA).

"Ia ditolak berikutan faktor gaji yang tidak mencukupi. Justeru, kita mengharapkan agar pihak kerajaan dapat memainkan peranan dengan mengawal harga kediaman ini melalui penubuhan majlis rundingan harga rumah," katanya.

Beliau berkata demikian dalam sidang media selepas Majlis Perasmian Mesyuarat Agung Tri Tahunan Anulae Cawangan Majlis Perbandaran Muar (MPM) dan Kospeta Malaysia Berhad, Kawasan Muar, di Dewan Jubli Intan, di sini, sebentar tadi.

Azih berkata, berdasarkan maklumat yang diperoleh, hampir separuh penjawat awam di Lembah Klang gagal memiliki kediaman sendiri termasuk di Ibu Kota iaitu seramai kira-kira 5,000 golongan berkenaan yang belum berjaya membeli rumah.

"Jangan biarkan pasaran yang menentukan harga kerana jika itu terus berlaku, maka lebih ramailah golongan muda yang baru berkerja dan berkahwin terus-terusan menyewa," katanya.
