“Since NK received the NGO GPP certificate, I observed that staff has improved their attitude as most of them have paid more attention on key policies and optimistically, they become braver than before. Obviously, they can now approach their mangers and me to seek for clarification on the Staff Policy and Finance Policy. Interestingly, now, we have the minutes taken and made available for every meeting. I recognize that we become more professional than before while staffs, now, clearly understand and effectively practice relevant policies and procedures”.
