Our shining service stars

At a STAR-studded ceremony held on 10 July 2007, two Customs officers — Senior Customs Officer (SCO) Mohamed Yunos Ismail and Higher Customs Officer (HCO) Roswati Bte Mustadi — were named winners of the prestigious PS21 STAR Service Award. Get to know these two inspiring service exemplars!

HCO Roswati Bte Mustadi, who received her award from Minister Teo, said that winning the award has inspired her to work even harder to serve her customers.
 
The PS21 STAR Service Awards celebrate the service achievements of public servants.

Roswati and Mohamed Yunos, both frontline officers from the Checkpoint Services & Investigations Branch, epitomise the service-mindedness and professionalism that engender the spirit of public service excellence.

Customers are impressed with Roswati’s impeccable service. The word “awed” best describes what they say about their encounters with her.

On receiving her award, Roswati said, “I am very happy and honoured to receive the award. It will continue to spur me to work harder to provide the best that I can to our customers.”

SCO Mohamed Yunos Ismail believes in giving his best in every situation.
 
“Going the extra mile” is investigation officer Mohamed Yunos’ guiding service philosophy. He shared, “Our customers expect nothing but the best from us in all situations. No matter how tough the circumstances, I take it in my stride to do more than what they expect from us. Customers are happy, and it helps my work too!”

Roswati and Mohamed Yunos, who received their awards from Mr Teo Chee Hean, Minister-in-Charge of the Civil Service, are two role models that Singapore Customs is very proud of!
