Talikhidmat was first developed and implemented in 1996, which was introduced as a client server Talikhidmat system. In 2002, Talikhidmat was relaunched as Centralized Management of Talikhidmat system (CTMS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talikhidmat then stepped up their game in developing its very own mobile application, SCS Talikhidmat Mobile Application Version 1.0 on 4 October 2014. The launching event was held at Boulevard Shopping Mall Kuching and officiated by the State Secretary Tan Sri Datuk Amar Morshidi Ghani<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the state-owned telecommunications infrastructure provider, SarawakNet ensures that Talikhidmat is accessible and functional across different locations in the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state government develops Talikhidmat for several reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

a)  Enhanced service delivery where the government can provide platform for citizens voicing out their concerns, seeking information and lodging complaints regarding various government services<\/p>\n\n\n\n

e) Data-driven decision-making. Data collected through Talikhidmat can be analyzed and identify recurring issues, assess service performance and inform policy decisions. The government will be able to gain insights into the common problems faced by the citizens and prioritize areas for improvement based on data-driven evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n
