Malaysian Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak is a very nice gentleman, full of pleasant surprises.

Today, the Premier announced a very good news for more than 1 million Malaysian civil servants.

The Public Service New Remuneration Scheme (SBPA) has been scrapped, and the existing Malaysian Remuneration System (SSM) would be reintroduced with improvements, Najib announced today, Thursday 8th March 2012.
