Last year during Hari Raya 2012, the civil servants had received 1.5 month bonus. Meanwhile for this year, Datuk Omar Osman said 2.5 month bonus is appropriate by looking at the current economic situation of the nation.
Bonus Hari Raya 2013 will be given in conjunction with Ramadan and Eid celebrations. This help the civil servants to ease their financial burden during the festive season.
