S. Mogan: Estate Affairs and Human Resources;<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>Datuk Ismal Lasim: Infrastructure, Water, Energy and Telecommunications;<\/li>\n<li>Ismail Taib: Health, Science, Technology and Innovation;<\/li>\n<li>Mohd Razi Kail: Tourism, Unity, Culture, Arts and Heritage;<\/li>\n<li>Zainab Nasir: Women Development, Family and Communal Well Being:<\/li>\n<li>Datuk Hasim Rusdi: Rural Development, Consumer Affairs and Public Amenities;<\/li>\n<li>Datuk Yunus Rahmat: Agriculture, Agro-based Industries, Entrepreneurial and Co-operative Development;<\/li>\n<li>Abd Samad Ibrahim: Human Capital Development, Youth and Sports; and,<\/li>\n<li>Shamsulkahar Mohd Deli: Education and Higher Learning Institutions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mohamed particular <span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><strong>stressed the welfare of new villages and estate workers as necessary to ensure they were not neglected and benefited from development projects and other opportunities enjoyed by urban dwellers<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><strong>I want these two Excos to ensure those living in new villages received their fair share of public facilities, while for those working in estates, we don&#8217;t want them to be cheated or exploited in any way. We want to ensure they receive their fair wages and proper housing and educational facilities,<\/strong><\/span>&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mohamad said the Exco in charge of human capital development will be tasked with looking into the welfare of school leavers who do not make it into public institutions of higher learning or private colleges. &#8220;We want to ensure that these Form 5 and 6 school leavers are not neglected and end up becoming a social problem. It is the duty of this Exco to see that this group of youth are given the opportunity to pursue some form of skills training and end up with proper jobs and good futures,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Since seven of the 10-member Exco are first-time state assemblyman, he said he would give them a month to get familiarised with their respective portfolios. He also gave them and himself a month to declare their assets, a copy of which would be given to the State Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I expect each Exco member to go to their respective constituencies everyday. They have to attend meetings daily except Thursdays, from 8am &#8211; 1pm, after which I want them to go back to their constituencies and work. As for Thursdays, I expect them to spend the entire day working in their constituencies and not be at their Exco offices,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>As for state assemblymen, Mohamad said there was no reason for them not to be in their constituencies and that he wanted all of them, including the Exco members to be readily accessible to the public.  &#8220;Make sure your numbers are displayed at your constituency and Exco offices, as well as all your respective service centres. After all, your handphone bills are reimbursed by the Government. The last time, I came to know that certain Exco members were never in their constituencies and this is unacceptable,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>As to the appointment of deputy Exco members, he said there was no need. &#8220;I do not want the Exco members to be delegating their duties to their deputies and taking it easy,&#8221; he said, adding that he expected them to be on their toes at all times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looks like Human Resource is a popular portfolio to be given to MIC &#8211; Dr S.Subramaniam in cabinet, Johor&#8217;s Asojan also has it, and in Penang, Deputy CM Prof Ramasamy also covers Human Resource.
