A suggestion for the DMP

My blue book was once seized by a traffic officer. Six months later, I was told that my document had been misplaced. It was a huge hassle for me to have another blue book prepared.
I would like to suggest that the DMP, instead of seizing the document, should scan the document on a device which has apps to scan documents. Also, traffic police carry machines which produce fine tickets. If credit cards could be swiped on these machines, payments could be made instantly, which would reduce a lot of hassle. I hope the DMP will consider these suggestions seriously and use the available modern technology to make things easier for themselves and us.

Politics free cadre recruitment

On May 2, 2017 cadres recommended by the PSC joined their workplaces after passing through the stages of the 35th BCS exam. Unfortunately, among the 88 cadres who couldn’t make it through the police verification procedure, at least 65 cadres have allegedly been blocked due to political considerations. After completing higher education and waiting for more than two years, these meritorious candidates have failed to realise their professional aspirations due to direct or indirect involvement with opposing political groups.
We strongly oppose this politicisation and corruption at the the highest level of the government recruitment process.
