[KiniNews] The government has agreed to increase the salaries of its civil servants between seven and 15 percent beginning Dec 1.
In announcing the decision, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said the salary hike will be executed in two phases.
Civil servants categorised in support, as well as management and professional groups, will receive an average 15 percent salary rise while top government management officers would only get seven percent, he said.
Meanwhile, in a separate story, former Court of Appeal judge Hamid Sultan Abu Backer said it would be a "prudent measure" for the perpetrator who assaulted deaf e-hailing driver Ong Ing Keong to be prosecuted for the May incident.
This comes after the Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain said the attacker - a police escort personnel - had faced disciplinary action within the force.
