The Civil Service Commission has compelled civil servants to participate in the launch of the National Respect Campaign announced by President Mohamed Muizzu. In a circular sent last week to permanent secretaries and responsible heads of government offices, the Civil Service Commission directed all civil servants working in government offices and under those offices to participate in the launch of the Respect Campaign and to ensure their participation in the ceremony. The Civil Service Commission stated that it wishes to make the Respect Campaign, which is being conducted on a national level, a successful campaign. The launch of the National Respect Campaign planned to be carried out by the Ministry of Heritage is scheduled to be held at a ceremony in the Maafannu Track area next Friday. According to information received, the Ministry of Heritage has spent considerable expenses so far on the Respect Campaign. The slogan of the project has been defined as "Joy of Respect – Benefit of Society," and it has been decided to carry out the campaign for five years. The government has also decided to observe a National Respect Day once a year on a national level.
