Calling digitalization a compelling option, the president argued that the civil service is the foothold of governance and that a paradigm shift needs to be made to make policymaking and governance seamless.
It is in this sense that I am pleased to point out that the adoption of digitalization of web processes in the public service is the gateway to the efficient use of resources and national development, and is apt and appropriate for this commemoration.
The governance challenges we face today leave no way to continue on the analog front.
The task ahead of us as people and government is difficult, but the course of success is promising if we make the right choices.
Digitization is a compelling choice and we must accept it.
The expectations of public administration this year are full.
That’s because this administration’s public service expectations are high.
This is because public service is the main pillar of governance; Our vision and mission is based on tools, policies, and programs to stimulate a multifaceted National Economic trend.
Many difficult but necessary policy and paradigm shifts will be introduced to shift the position of governance
To be more efficient, effective and effective to meet this expectation of management Government agencies must step up reforms under six pillars of the Federal Bureaucracy Strategy.
And the action plan for 2021 to 2025 must be focused and fulfilled,” he said.
