ChinesePress:Msians prefer to work in Singapore than migrate
-
There are many Malaysians with SPR status and employment pass/work permit holders working as Pilots and Cabin Crew in airlines own by Singapore.
-
There are many Malaysians with SPR status and Employment Pass holders working in hospitals in Singapore. Those holding Employment Passes will be recommended by the hospitals in Singapore to become PR in Singapore.
-
Many Malaysians (especially the Malaysian Indians) work in the Logistics Industry in Singapore....at Changi Airport, warehouse etcs. They are happy with their work and salaries; and they work hard normally with overtime.
-
Many Malaysians (Chinese, Malays, Indians and others) working as Kitchen Assistants and some as Chefs in Singapore at the hotels, restaurants, food courts and food stalls etcs). They are happy with their work and salaries.
-
Many Malaysians (especially Indians and Malays) work as cleaners in Singapore. They are happy with their work though they work 12 hours shift or more. They say its easy work. They are happy with their salaries.
-
Many Malaysians with SPR status or work permit holders work in the Admin/HR/Account Department though they are not good in English or sometimes don't understand English and sometimes they also failed their SPM (equivalent to G.C.E 'O' Level) with only 2 subjects passed usually Chinese and Mathematics. The funny thing I noticed many Chinese Malaysians work in the Account Departments as Accountants and Account Clerks though their English is not good but their Maths is good. They normally will claim overtime pay especially those staying in Singapore and once a week they return to Malaysia. They are happy with their remuneration packages.

I suspected that the local companies especially the SMEs who employed Malaysians or other nationalities in the Account Departments can have better control of their Account Department so that they can cheat MOM about the foreigners actual monthly salaries. In that way too they can cheat MOM on the monthly levies. If they employed Singaporeans in their Account Department, the Singaporean staffs will make a complaint to MOM...Lols.
-
So many Singaporeans think that many foreigners from Philippines, India, China, the western countries etcs are taking away their job opportunity in Singapore. Well, think again. The Malaysian workers make the up the most foreign workers in Singapore and they are employed in all the job markets in Singapore.

True and quite a number of the MPs or Ministers were born in Malaysia or other countries. So they closed one eye for Malaysians you mean? -
dunno, I'm not "them".

Not a good idea perhaps? I still think it'll be a loss if we move over.

It's really a turn off if they can't communicate in english though, I worked in the 2nd company and it really turned me off when they (malaysian chinese) can't communicate in english, and speak in their own accented chinese. For the entire month I've worked there I gave a black face whenever I'm with them because we can't communicate.
Even though I can speak (mandarin) but I still prefer our people (sg ppl) because I feel we have something in common to build/talk on.

"On the other hand, those who wish to become Singaporeans are attracted by fairer and more open education policy, in addition to a sound public transit system and good public order as well as bigger room for personal growth." In the past when Singapore Dollar and Malaysian Ringgit value were the same, yes many Malaysians would consider the abovementioned infrastructure of Singapore to become SPRs or Singaporeans. However, that too after decades living in Singapore as Singaporeans, many too regretted for giving up their Malaysian Citizenships. Nowadays, when Malaysians apply for SPR status its more for immigration/employment convenience and making more money. Singapore is just a Forex business transactions for them or a stepping stone to migrate to the western countries for better job opportunities and future. If Singapore currency value now is the same value as Malaysian Ringgit.... few Malaysians will work in Singapore but many other foreigners from third world countries will be here to work.

They are not stupid. They are smarter than Singapore Government. -
Many Malaysian students studying in Singapore are eager and willing to serve the National Service rather than Singaporeans. Hmmm...you think they wayang only or they are really serious? However, SPRs Malaysian parents (especially those living in JB) with sons studying in Singapore, they are smart, they don't want to apply for their sons for SPR status because they don't want their sons to serve National Service in Singapore. Like the Defence Minister says, "Don't apply for PR if you don't want your son or sons to serve NS."
