INTRODUCTION

In the early stage of Malaysias independence in 31st of August 1957, the government of Malaysia find themselves in a difficult situation. At that time, our economy is really in bad shape because of the continuous war with the communist. The unemployment rate is also very high especially in the administrative sector due to lack of professional labour force. The gap between urban people who are mostly Chinese and rural people who are mostly Malay are also high. This has somewhat became some of the factors that lead to the famous May 13 Tragedy. Since then, the government has given their priority to greatly improve the standard living of the people. Hence, many reports has been submitted to the government. The careful study on those reports then lead to the formation of Malaysian Administrative Modernisation And Management Planning Unit in short MAMPU.

Montgomery and Milton J Esman certifying professional development through educational programs and training for all levels of personnel in the Civil Service.
