Centralisation
of Powers
of Authority
Malaysia is governed through a centralised body in their
respective capital cities. Malaysia has been described as
having a highly centralised government system mainly
due to the fact that the country has differences in
territorial, demographic, linguistic, cultural, and religious
identity.
7
Bureaucratic
Red Tape
According to a study on government bureaucracy in
facilitating business by Endi Haryono (2011), the nature
and performance of Malaysian government bureaucracies
are connected with the past experiences under the
colonial administrations, political cultures, and socio-
political contexts.
8
Working in Silos and
Low Level of Engagement
Ministries and Government Agencies in Malaysia are
bound to conform to different jurisdictions. They will limit
their individual interest according to their department,
agency and ministry. This absence of integration of
functions or cross-agency structure contributes to
working in silos which leads to communication
breakdown within the organisation and also between
agencies.
9
Lack of Coaching and
Mentoring
A succession planning process will not be successful if an
organisation fails in developing a pool of leadership
talent. Lacking of coaching and mentoring between the
senior and junior government officials has been identified
as one of the factor that causes failure in developing
leadership talent.
