IPOH, 28 July 2023 - Civil servants must carry out their duties with full dedication and responsibility, and make their work as an act of worship.

He also presented acting letters to 86 northern zone PTD officers, comprising 10 officers in acting grade M52 and 76 officers in acting grade M48, before the ceremony ended with a reception.
