Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim says many countries, including Malaysia, were enduring economic hardship.

SEGAMBUT : Elected representatives who are appointed to office in future will not receive pension, similar to those recruited as civil servants, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said.

“(In future), if any civil servants are hired, they will not receive pension. The same principle applies for politicians,” Anwar told reporters when met here.

Recently, the public services department (JPA) announced that new civil servants would be appointed on a contractual basis pending a new policy on hiring civil servants for permanent posts without pensions.



Anwar added that many countries, including Malaysia, are facing some economic hardship, which requires some change in the way things are done financially.

“However, any changes the government wishes to make must be preceded by proposals and discussions, including those involving the abolition of pensions, before being finalised.”

On Wednesday, deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi echoed JPA’s announcement, saying that new civil servants would contribute to EPF and Social Security Organisation (Socso).

Meanwhile, speaking on the national football team, Anwar congratulated and thanked the team for giving South Korea a run for their money in their final Asian Cup group match last night.



He also announced an extra allocation of RM5 million to the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) to enhance the national team’s management.

“This allocation will be given immediately,” he said.

Last night, a late equaliser from Romel Morales helped Harimau Malaya grab a 3-3 draw against Asian Cup favourites South Korea.

The draw, however, failed to take Malaysia into the knockout stage as only the top two teams in each group and the four best third-placed teams progressed.

Harimau Malaya were placed fourth in their group with one point having lost their first two matches to Jordan and Bahrain.
