Two from Pahang State Secretary’s Office nabbed over sale of titles to 29 individuals
KUANTAN: For more than a year, two Pahang State Secretary’s Office staff members have been allegedly misusing their employee identification numbers to make modifications to the list of “Datuk” and “Datuk Seri” recipients in the Pahang state honours and awards management system.

The duo — an operations assistant and administrative assistant aged 36 and 30, respectively — were believed to be the main suspects behind the sales of the fake honorific titles.
Their scheme ran into trouble on Oct 12 last year, when a staff member of the Prime Minister Department’s Ceremonial Unit contacted the Pahang State Secretary’s Office after an individual turned up at the former’s office in Putrajaya.
The man had requested for his name to be included in the Prime Minister’s Department medal and awards record system.
A Pahang State Secretary’s Office employee suspected something amiss following checks on the Pahang state honours and awards management system, as the individual’s name was part of the list, but was missing in the master list provided by the Pahang State Secretary’s Office Ceremonial and Official Event Management Unit.

State police chief Datuk Seri Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf said the situation raised questions, prompting the employee to conduct further checks on the database of recipients under the Pahang state honours and awards management system.
“Detailed checks were conducted to identify the names that were not supposed to be in the management list and the matching process revealed the names and personal information of 29 individuals. Their names were listed in the system to be conferred with the ‘Datuk’ and ‘Datuk Seri’ titles,” he said, adding that a report was lodged over the matter.
Ramli said investigations led to the arrest of the suspects, who misused their staff identification number to access the Pahang state honours and awards management system to carry out unauthorised modifications without the permission of the management.
