Actually I have worked in other public agency who also take decision to disengage if “difficult” enquirer persist in asking questions and they got nothing else to answer. Someone explained to me before that some public servants have the concern of making a public statement on behalf of their agency that is not already in public domain about a difficult issue, as it would need many layers of clearance.

I’m not passing any comments whether such conduct is more or less accountable. Each case is different.

My own view is that public agency should work towards more thoughtful answers to individual members of public (not only those who complain high up) that actually go behind to see what taiji the enquirer is angry about. It is true some enquirers are just looking to stir and I would not disagree that these should be disengaged if no further info can be provided, but some have a genuine gripe. It’s not surprising that they will get more angry to receive “standard” answers pointing them to various sources of information in public domain. C’mon, a non-chatgpt applying the human mind can do better.

Loosely, this is the broad meaning of the two Hokkien phrases (not direct translation):

1. Where got such good opportunity (I did not read the original post carefully but generally kangtao is used to suggest opportunity based on inside info)

2. Want cheap, want good, want big, basically this is usually used sarcastically to mean want best of all worlds, which is not always possible

You can find a lot of these online

Agree. As a young civil servant, I once really thought civil service no toxic people because everyone working for ideals. I now know that some can be every bit as ambitious and toxic as those out there, only that they also talk the loudest about serving others.
