      I live in Singapore and I spoke to several of these Malaysian graduates who comes over to my house to collect thr garbage. They are an assets to their company they work for because they are always very courteous and very efficient when carrying out their roles very systematically. As a former Malaysian myself, I must say that these young Malaysians will go far in life because they know why they are here in Singapore, not just for the high salaries garbage collectors earn, but to learn the business and pick up managment skills as well. I can only wish them the success when they get back to Malaysia.

What i learnt is mnc will pay more as long as we can show we are worth more to them. There, it's a global market place. Malaysia salaries are lower than most other countries including China and India. So there is leeway get more, if we offer something others don't. Just my own experience.

    I am senior fr TAR college. Fr what I see is u should look beyond Malaysia, due to current situation of global economy collapsing, many big firms have closed down or on the way closing down. Unemployment among global fresh graduates or graduates is increasing exponentially. For example China, there are millions of graduates unemployed every year. Many foreign investors has withdrawn fr China and also Malaysia, in fact fr many many countries. So, there aren’t enough company to absorb any graduates.
    Therefore , whether u graduates go abroad or stay local, there are enough jobs to absorb you people moreover the syllabus you people studies in universities and colleges are very outdated and not needed by current firms. Everybody know that.
    Therefore, in years to come, you people most probably be conscripted to fight in World War III like in Russia.

    Actually you shouldn't expect freedom the first 5 or 6 years into working life for fresh grads. What should be expected is living with your parents and save your money for 5 to 6 years in that period start investing as well. Regardless what the starting pay is going to be, whether is 2.5K, 3.5 k or even 4k plus. after 5 or 6 years saving and investing while living with parents then only have your freedom la. Because this expensive world is not only Malaysia is also in Singapore and overseas. Just bore your life and be discipline for 5 to 6 years only ma after that once got enough Money for survival, investing for the future and emergencies than only think about living alone la or with friends or couples la I also like that and I'm doing just fine only. I stayed with my parents and saved and invest 2k per month for 6 years got lucky in Tesla stock in 2020 where my 5k grew to 60k and I sold the stock and totalled income of saving and investing about 200k I then invested in dividend stocks with and average dividend of 5% get 10k per year then with the job of 3k+ salary plus dividends roughly about 4k . Then I just reinvest my dividends and expand my income without worrying about money anymore.

      Thats provided if your family is well off and dont require you to cover their debts and living expenses. Most B40 and M40 are living that way and even take up part time jobs just to cover tabs. Your comment shows that you have no real life experience with the common people and out of touch with reality.
      Coming from a M40 family I manage to save up and got myself a housing loan for the next 30 years. Which means I am financially stuck until I retire unless or otherwise the company I am working in decides I am competent to move up the ladder. Here's the catch, most of the previous gens are still in job market and taking up places for the next 10 years. So if I am to stay for another 10 years and get lucky enough to be promoted, I may be able to cover the tabs AND afford more.
      Note that I did not mention anywhere me being qualified or competent for the job but rather being 'lucky'. Reality is that office works and corporate depends a lot on connections and luck. As the older gens always say - Its a big club and you're not part of it unless you get lucky

      IMO the real problem is not pay being too low but rather inflation thats overtaking the graph along with depreciation of ringgit. i.e. Chicken rice 5 years ago was RM7 and now it is RM10, thats absolutely mental ! A price hike of 50% over 5 years when my pay only has hope of increasing by perhaps 30% over 10 years ! I have no actual statistics but its more of a comparison to my own job's rate of increment as compared to the market's situation.
      Most of us dont mind starting off small and low but if there's hardly a way to move up in life, you can't really blame the younger gens for laying flat or giving up quickly because life is just too fast paced these days. You can't sit around and wait for a 'chance' anymore and its better to give up and look elsewhere quickly to ensure survival

And they are complaining they cannot invest or save money because of low salary. Honestly the country will not lose anything if they leave. Many neighbouring countries young graduates willing to fill those gaps. They will be very happy to have the opportunity. Little to the Malaysians but abundant to them. And whose loss? Yes can go to richer country to have more salary but live with higher cost of living too. Nothing difference.

    So I joined chemistry analytical line.
    One of the problems with UM graduates is they hv this mindset that "honours grads don't need to down to inspect production lines" 😅 And this Indian guy couldn't evdn write a full English report because he asked me to do it for him after insinuating my "general degree".

      Civil servants make up a tiny proportion of employment in Malaysia & inflation has been going up & up for like forever. This is not a recent phenomenon, it has been going on for decades. High inflation, low wages. I have worked at several companies & I can tell u for sure, Malaysian companies have TERRIBLE management. They waste money on stuff that does not matter & nobody cares about, meanwhile the increment given to staff year after year was abysmal. Malaysian managers are low quality. Terrible at their jobs but very good at ash kissing. They are also very racist. I welcome the PH gov move to make it easier to allow expats to work here as managers. Teach our local people how to be good managers & how to work efficiently.

    You got your concept so very wrong.... Most employers would not prefer to hire a person that is overly qualified for a particular role; because an overly qualified candidate would not be satisfied with a very much simple mundane role so much so they would likely leave their job and hence causing high turn over rate which is not healthy to run an operation. Employment is based on matching qualifications and the right attitude / values of the candidate.

At the end of the day, you will retire, regardless of what job position you hold in previous company, after retirement, you are just a normal person, no one cares, and this is where the truth start to review upon you. Therefore, before the truth review on you, you will review the truth first that is stay away from joining traditional related business models that lock your time, freedom and even your health as well.
