A commentator alluded that the public does not know the whos who of PTDs and PTAs. I believe many of them had/have contributed much to development of the country. Perhaps they have done short biographic compilation of those noteworthy people if not they should.
Others of high calibre administrators in the past include Mahmud b. Mat (refer “Tinggal Kenangan: The Memoirs of Dato’ Sir Mahmud bin Mat”, 1997) and others as I could gleaned from the book were Tun Raja Uda, Tun Abdul Malik, Dato’ Hamzah Abdullah, Dato’ Othman Mohamed.
During colonial times, administrators were keen observers and partakers. They wrote books based on their experiences – Hugh Clifford (“a lover of jungle life, of Malays, and of adventure” Frederick Weld wrote), Capt. Speedy, W.G. Maxwell, R.O Winstedt (MCS 1902-1935) …. The latter, a paragon scholar of the Malays as such that to know the Malays go ‘see’ Winstedt! (view posting in my blog).

KSN and DG should Resign: BigDogCom
In real life conditions there are various grades of achievements as circumstances, opportunities and ones capability may determine. All in all, Allah will have the final say as accorded to each living being.
Everyone has own weaknesses. When Ahmad Sari was DO of Rembau he could afford to flash his $2000 wrist watch! - that according to my history teacher. The point is ones get wiser with time and not stupid as the case with the KSN.
Many people work deligently and intelligently, hopefully. Public recognition and awards may not matter as long as one gets the job done. Self glorification is something of an anathema especially if one is highly paid.
It is of course difficult and subjective to compare personalities. One has to know them closely in terms of real contributions and other aspects of their lives. In most cases we come to know them through the media and publications. There is a blip about Hashim Sam, the author of "The Real Commoner: The Life and Times of Imam Perang Jabor 1858-1921" published by the National Library, 2002.

With their numbers keep on increasing the PTDs want to spread their wings to departments beyond their expertise or creat new ones to fill their desires – JUSA posts. Such departments become closed among their members. The National Landscape Dept and the Pineapple Board to name a couple are technically science-based portfolios but administered bureaucratically. There are cases of retired top men placed as board members of universities. For their lives they have never been in the academic or business for that matter. It is difficult to retire gracefully after so long of glamorous high income sojourn.
For revealing their hearts’ desires of big money and pretentious service to all, the two top goons are beyond sustainablity in all matters in nation building.

Di Perak ni ada tempat bernama Mambang DiAwan. Kini terjelma pula dua mambang yang berlegar di awan. Maksudnya kaki tak jejak tanah, feet not on the ground. Pikiran dan keputusan menggila tak menasabah seolah duit rakyat dia punya. Suka hati mereka berapa banyak naikan gaji.
Adakah orang seperti mereka tu naik pangkat melangit tanpa sokongan dan restu Menteri dan PM. Silap siapa? Sama-sama menanggung padah malu. Perlukah rakyat asyik dok monitor orang2 atas tu samaada betul atau tidak? Nampaknya kalau 2 mambang tu tak rela turun,Menteri maupun PM pula kena bungkus.
