Public sector officers at the diploma level need to file reports, draft memos and correspond with various parties. If you honestly think TS sort of opening paragraph is going to be acceptable to a Div I diploma officer in a Stat board, then I put to you that the frog is in you.

Civil service does not expect queen's English from diploma holders, but neither are their standards so low that they will accept Ah Beng style pidgin English full of basic grammatical and syntax errors.
