The Chinese community make up less than two percent of the Malaysian government service.
KUCHING: Change, like charity should begin at home.  Likewise Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak should have begun implementing his 1Malaysia concept within the civil service first before attempting to ‘teach the world’.
Alas this has not happened and Najib, according to Sarawak DAP has failed miserably in improving the racial composition of the civil service.
The situation is a poor reflection of his seriousness in implementing the 1Malaysia concept.
“He (Najib) has been shouting about the concept for the past two years, and yet the racial composition between the Malays and Chinese in government departments has not improved,” said Sarawak DAP secretary Chong Chieng Jen.

According to Chong,  he had asked the PM, during the recent sitting of Parliament, to disclose the total number of civil servants in all the ministries and the racial breakdown of Malays, Chinese, Iban and Bidayuh staff.
He said he had asked for the update on number of civil service staff in the government’s employ up to 31 March 2011.

Listing out the detailed breakdown of Malay and Chinese civil servants, Chong said there was a clear ‘imbalance’ in racial compositions in all government departments, agencies and ministeries.
“It also clearly shows Najib’s 1Malaysia slogan is a mere slogan.
“There is no concrete policy to implement the 1Malaysia concept.
“There has been no improvement in the racial composition even after he announced the concept…even his department is worse than average.
He said: “There is no improvement in the racial composition based on the racial breakdown in the
“It shows that Najib is not the PM for all, but the prime minister for one single race,” Chong said after releasing the Malay to Chinese staff breakdown in the various ministries.
