Abstract: Abstract The civil service system, being an important agency for carrying out the policies and measures of a government, is receiving more and more attention in recent years. Significant developments and modernization programs to improve the efficiency of the bureaucracy have been carried out in many countries. In this paper, we work to examine and study the civil service of two small but efficient economic entities in Asia - Hong Kong and Singapore. By smoothly and honestly implementing the government policies, the civil services in these two cities have indeed contributed to the remarkable societal and economic developments in the 1980s and 1990s. By comparing the two civil service systems, we can identify a number of features that they have in common, including the administration by generalists, the efforts for localization and the determination to combat corruption within the civil service systems. With increasing demands and expectations of the government service, both Singapore and Hong Kong have designed and carried out different kinds of civil service reforms to cope with the new environment. Their reform measures include various types of changes, such as adjusting the conditions of service, 3remuneration of the civil servants and introducing new kinds of training and development programs. These measures aim at increasing the efficiency of the system, cultivating a service culture into the minds of the civil servants, as well as solving immediate problems and challenges facing the governments such as reducing governmental financial burden by adjusting the scale for salary payment of the civil servants. Finally, after briefly evaluating these reforms, a number of pitfalls and successful examples are illustrated. It is hoped that by examining these lessons learnt, adequate directions for future civil service management could be more easily identified. It is also the purpose of this paper to bring more insights in improving the civil service efficiency for other governments in Asia by taking the experiences of Hong Kong and Singapore as a reference. 4 DOI: 10.5353/th_b2951877 Subjects: Civil service - China - Hong Kong Civil service - Singapore

Book Synopsis International Handbook on Civil Service Systems by : A. Massey
Download or read book International Handbook on Civil Service Systems written by A. Massey and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This Handbook on civil service systems is truly international and comparative. It covers and compares countries from all continents. It also connects historical (Weberian) legacies to contemporary challenges such as coordination, the hollow state, and trust. Massey's Handbook does not avoid difficult issues for civil service systems such as ruined reforms, fiscal retrenchment, and cultural and political system shocks. Therefore this book is exceptionally rich and stimulating.' Geert Bouckaert, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium While there is no universally accepted definition of civil servant and civil service, this authoritative and informative Handbook compares and contrasts various approaches to organising the structure and activities of different civil service systems. Underpinning theories and frameworks provide a disciplinary perspective from which to explore recurring topics and themes, and international comparisons are made via case studies from Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe, and North and South America. The expert contributors consider the historical and theoretical context of public administration and public sector management, encompassing issues such as the Weberian legacy, joined-up government and the hollowed-out state thesis. The debate between Anglo-American influenced systems versus the continental European approach to organising the civil service is also addressed.
Book Synopsis The State at Work by : Hans-Ulrich Derlien
Download or read book The State at Work written by Hans-Ulrich Derlien and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Representing the most extensive research on public employment, these two volumes explore the radical changes that have taken place in the configuration of national public services due to a general expansion of public employment that was followed by stagnation and decreases. Part-time employment and the involvement of women also increased as a component of the public sector and were linked to the most important growth areas such as the educational, health care and personal social services sectors. The two volumes that make up this study shed important insight on these changes. Volume 1 offers a unique internationally comparative multi-dimensional analysis of ten public service systems belonging to different families of major advanced western countries. It contains the most comprehensive and comparable quantitative analyses available anywhere of ten public service systems; Britain, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, the US, Germany, Spain, France, Denmark and Sweden. Volume 2 is a comprehensive analysis of the ten public service systems, with in-depth comparisons of the systems along eight dimensions including central-regional-local government employment proportions and the change of the services since the 1950s with respect to social composition (gender, minorities, elites, career groups). Scholars and professionals in the fields of public administration, politics and economics will find this two-volume compendium informative and practical.
