The Congress of Union of Employees in the Public and Civil Services Malaysia (Cuepacs) has urged all parties not to politicise the welfare of civil servants, including the pay hike announced by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim on May 1.

Its president, Adnan Mat said Cuepacs was disappointed when the pay hike was politicised to the extent that it gave rise to an idea to block the government’s intention by denying support in Parliament.
