Alhamdulillah we have finished organizing Talk Talk Program with KPPA Dato 'Sri Zainal Rahim bin Seman on the morning of 26 May 2017. 

Throughout the program many things were shared by him to reflect on the teaching of JKR staff, especially JD who act as ambassadors in every state. (Although the example was given to JD where he had much experience of interacting with this group, however, all levels of the JKR were involved like the "Unpredictable, Shameless.

KPPA emphasizes on the quality of work that JKR needs to convey to customers directly or indirectly. All his innuendo should be especially noted especially the delayed issue of the project.

At this event, we are clearly aware of the perception of the Department / Agency outside of JKR. If we have always been proud of our accomplishments, we are aware that these achievements are still not enough to boost the JKR's name to an excellent level in the public service. It seems as if for a few years (or maybe more) we are as shocking as posing the JKR as the ultimate technical department, champion in project management and technical consultant in Malaysia. So it is not surprising that a handful of cadres of JKR officials have also denied this department's deck due to our failure.

The issue highlighted by one of the participants (former JD) of the interview program illustrates the real situation of what happened in JKR. When the project is late, we are blamed, when the project progresses ahead of the schedule, they still assume that the project will also be facing a delayed issue.

To ensure that JKR continues to be relevant to Malaysia's beloved homeland, the JKR needs a holistic transformation and not the usual slogan that every one of us (JKR) interacts in the event involving JKR only. This transformation should be translated in terms of delivering excellent quality work based on the right strategy. It is a brilliant performance-oriented and fully utilized channels to market the excellence that has been achieved. Excellent achievement will not have a high impact if it is not routinely disseminated on the right channel.

This awareness should be applied to all JKR members in order to ensure that pure desires to restore JKR's excellence can be achieved. It is closely related to the excellence of work achievement rather than being tackled by the trivial issues that clearly divide the network of cooperation among the JKRs. The issue of downgrading the decision on social media must be stopped immediately. Every citizen must be mature and aware that the message will be read by every individual without limitation of location and time. The message delivered to criticize the department's decision directly suppresses our pursuit of pursuit of JKR's name to a higher level. Respect for JKR members in realizing this noble business should be given due priority. 

Let us work together to strengthen our energy to achieve excellence in order to best serve the nation. Make the words of KPPA as a spirit of encouragement for the JKR to come forward with greater excellence. Once excellence is achieved, our application for incentives such as promotion, PE allowances such as physicians, as well as the addition of strategic posts may be certified by PSDs. I am confident that the JD / JJ line-up, Division / Branch / State Director and JKR Management are ready to bring a new transformation right after the JKR Senior Officials Meeting (SOC) 2017 in Kuantan. Let's do it at our own rank and ability.
