My email to the Selangor Director of Education

 

This post is from my blog post at Luqman's Musings. LINK.  Please give your comments and share it with your contacts. 

On 6 June 2026, I sent an official complaint via email to the Director of Education, Selangor, followed by a registered letter on 8 June 2026.After receiving no reply, I followed up with another email this morning,19.6.2026, and a telephone call. The Director’s Personal Assistant, Puan Aliah, who answered my call, informed me that the Director has instructed the complaint to be forwarded to the Integrity Department for further action. I asked her to acknowledge receipt of my email and have yet to receive it. 

Now, I'll wait for another two weeks to see if this matter has to be escalated.  

For those who missed my earlier post, below is the English translation of the email and formal letter I sent to the Director.

YBhg. Datin,

DISCIPLINARY COMPLAINT: FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH HIGH COURT OF MALAYA ORDER AND SERIOUS FINANCIAL INDEBTEDNESS BY A PUBLIC SERVANT   

NAME OF OFFICER: xxx A/P xxx (Name withheld)

IDENTITY CARD NO.: 670512-10-xxxx

PLACE OF SERVICE: SK BUKIT KUCHAI, KINRARA (SCHOOL CODE: BBA8239)   

With due respect, the above matter is referred to.  On behalf of the Plaintiff’s family, I wish to report a serious disciplinary breach by a public officer under the supervision of your Department/Ministry, namely Puan xxx A/P xxx, who is currently serving as a teacher at the above-mentioned school.  Attached to this letter is a copy of the High Court of Malaya Order at Shah Alam (Appendix 27) dated 19 May 2023 in Case No: BA-24NCVC-740-05/2022.  Under clause (ii) of the said Order, the Court directed Puan xxx to pay the sum of RM3,000.00 as costs of the action to the Plaintiff. For Your Honour’s information, as at the date of this complaint (more than three years after the order was issued), Puan xxx has continuously failed, neglected, and refused to settle the said judgment debt despite repeated demands.  Her willful disregard of an official order from the country’s judicial institution constitutes misconduct that tarnishes the image of the public service. Failure to settle this judgment debt is a clear violation under Regulation 13 of the Public Officers (Conduct and Discipline) Regulations 1993 [P.U.(A) 395/1993], which prohibits a public officer from being in a state of serious financial indebtedness arising from any unsatisfied judgment debt within the stipulated period.  In view of the above, we respectfully request that the Selangor State Education Department and the Integrity Unit of the Ministry of Education take appropriate internal disciplinary action against the said officer and direct her to comply with the law by settling the judgment debt of RM3,000.00 immediately.  Your Honour’s cooperation, attention, and firm action in this matter are highly appreciated in order to uphold the integrity and professionalism of the nation’s teaching profession.   

Thank you.   

Yours faithfully,  

(LUQMAN MICHEL)
