Lazy employees go home: Regent

Lazy employees go home: Regent

GORONTALO: The regent of Boalemo, Iwan Bokings, said that lazy civil servants in the district administration were better off at home.

"Rather than gossiping and doing nothing in their offices, they'd better go home and take care of their families" Iwan Bokings said in Bealemo on Thursday.

According to him, a lethargic and unproductive atmosphere had prevailed for ages because superiors had not paid enough attention to their subordinates and not given them enough tasks to keep them busy.

He added that many department heads in his administration were regarded as incompetent as they were incapable of keeping their subordinates busy.

"As a manager, one must be able to make schedules and programs for staff to do and to hold them responsible for them," he noted.

Bokings said that he was deeply concerned with the situation. He further added that his regency was in need of capable personnel. The government were obliged to pay their wages but staff had not been able to yield the desired results.

"We're paid by the public, therefore, we should do our best to serve them" he added. --Antara
