This Outstanding Service Award is an appreciation for the recipients’ services and contributions in carrying out their responsibilities as civil servants, both in official duties and active involvement in sports, social plus community activities. The Ipoh City Council is always committed to recognising the excellent work culture, dedication, and service provided by staff, and this Outstanding Service Award is just one of many appreciations. Hopefully, this accolade encourages the staff to continue with their exemplary work, while improving productivity to offer higher quality work. This ensures that the city council’s services meet the expectations of Ipohites, and remain trusted.

Additionally, this award creates healthy competition among the city council’s staff members, to prove each other’s ability to offer the best service. MBI’s Outstanding Service Award, besides an encouragement and recognition to members who have shown notable work performance last year, is a step towards cultivating comprehensive excellence in all aspects of the city council’s management and service delivery, particularly in ensuring that MBI remains among the best local authorities in Malaysia with a 5-star rating, and maintaining Ipoh’s position as one of the cleanest cities in the country.

In his speech, YBhg. Dato’ Rumaizi said, “MBI employees are the backbone of Ipoh’s development, and all initiatives carried out in their daily tasks as civil servants contribute to the progress of the city, and also the state and country at large. These achievements are the result of the teamwork in formulating appropriate policies to empower the city council. It is also these staff who assure that these policies are perfectly implemented, according to plan, with integrity, transparency and responsibility.”
