However, Sarker (2006: 185-187) summarized the format and methods of the
Singaporean public Sector reform, as follows: The systematic Singaporean public
Sector reform subject to the concept of New Public Management (NPM) started in
1989, by announcing the Block Vote Budget Allocation System, which authorized
ministers to manage the budgets and transfer capital and personnel between
government organizations. Also, the Singapore Government Management Accounting
System (SIGMA) was also established as the data base for the administrators in the
public sector to monitor and analyze service costs, productivity or other activities in
the public sector, as well as indicating the efficiency of budget use in each
organization.
In 1994, Budgeting for Results was also introduced requiring the public sector
to clearly define the objectives and performance indicators which had to correspond to
the budget the public sector needed and the products the public sector would gain
from activities. Moreover, the Auditor General’s Office was also established to
investigate inefficiency, wastefulness and unproductive activities within the
Singaporean public administration system.
In 1996, the Singaporean government started structural reform in the public
sector by establishing autonomous agencies (AAs) to build up autonomy and deftness
in the administration of finance, other management resources and public service
provision. Nowadays, most offices in the Singaporean public sector have become
autonomous agencies, except the Ministry of Defense and the Internal Security
Department, which are still in the public sector. Moreover, there was also
privatization, with transfer of some tasks in the public sector to private agencies,
elimination of unnecessary regulations, laws, steps or operational processes and
application of different administrative techniques.
Besides, the Singaporean public Sector reform according to NPM has also
included human resource management in the public sector, by transferring the Civil
Service Commission’s authority of recruitment and consideration of promotion to
organizations at the ministerial level. This has allowed the public sector to recruit
qualified personnel from the private sector to work in the public sector.
