PADAWAN: The Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) was awarded ISO 9001:2015
certification for Quality Management Systems by SIRIM QAS International.
Speaking at
a press conference here, MPP secretary, Andrew Joris Noyen said the council,
like other organisations, had implemented its ISO some two years back.
“Last year
we reviewed our ISO procedures and SIRIM came to audit it. So after the audit, we were awarded the ISO 9001:2015 certification.
“This is the
recognition given to us and our (council) activities are being documented
in accordance to the ISO standard. With this certification, the council will be
reviewed every year,” he said, adding that the validity of the certification is
for four years from 2016-2020.
Meanwhile,
MPP chairman, Lo Khere Chiang said, “It is not easy to get this ISO
certification. Without good staff and officers, you cannot get things done. So,
we have a lot of good staff and officers in this council and that is why we can
achieve a lot.
“Not anybody
can obtain ISO certification. We have to put in a lot of efforts into the
management system to meet certain requirements. It’s a world standard, not just
Kuching standard,” said the Batu Kitang Assemblyman.
Also present
at the press conference was MPP Deputy chairman, Datuk Ahmad Ibrahim.
