The purpose of this policy is to learn from the best practices of Japan\, and among others\, the focus was on inculcating  Japanese work ethics and managerial systems  to improve  economic performance and productivity in  Malaysia. The Malaysian Administrative Modernisation and Management Planning Unit (MAMPU) introduced a 5S guideline for the public sector in 2010 which\, in the main\, emulates the Japanese practice of 5S at  the workplace.  The 5S practices of Seiri (sorting)\, Seiton (organizing)\, Seiso (cleaning\, shining)\, Seiketsu (sanitizing\, standardizing) and Shitsuke (sustaining) are the key elements of a system for reducing waste and increasing productivity by maintaining an orderly work environment. The 5S concept which originated from Japan was perfected and implemented by corporations such as Toyota\, both at the parent  company in Japan  as well as in their production facilities overseas. The Japanese experience with the 5S methodology and techniques indicates that they contribute significantly to the productivity of an organisation. The basis of this practice\, has at its heart\, the values and practices of traditional Japanese culture. In 2013\, the 5S guideline was  updated and enhanced by the Public Sector Conducive Ecosystem (EKSA) guideline in Malaysia?s public sector. The essence and core elements of 5S remain as the main focus of EKSA. This talk will share the practice of Japanese work culture with specific focus on the experience and implementation of 5S in the Malaysian public sector.\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBIOGRAPHY\n\n \n\nDr. Ang Li Ling\nSenior Principal Assistant Secretary\nInternational Relations Division\nMinistry of Higher Education\nDr. Ang Li Ling joined the Malaysian Civil Service in 2003.
