- A report has found that over nine in 10 Singaporean firms are eyeing opportunities in the proposed Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone. The Singapore Business Federation's findings involved 160 companies; half are already operating in Johor. While many say the time is ripe to leverage the southern state's favourable operating costs and land availability, and Singapore's talent expertise and connectivity, challenges remain. Richa Mathew has more.
Predict that a lot of Singapore SMEs will shift most of their operations over to Johor cos they don't have to follow Singapore Labor laws regarding quotas, they can hire as many Malaysians as they want at Malaysia labor costs, lower rental costs as well.
It's better. Why waste Singaporeans workforce, labor, land and time when the business model's very essence is centered around low waged labor?
Just get out and move out to Malaysia instead. Singapore government is supposed to purge out low wage labor companies decades ago.
We want high income industries anything to do with cheap labors than we wil have to decline perhaps batam is a better option
Should have the SEZ, so these businesses can earn money from or through Singapore while paying peanuts for Malaysian manpower. Its a win-win solution, for Malaysia and these businesses. Singapore just needs to open the gates and let it happen so the bleeding can start. Hope the Singapore Parliamentarians are 'smart' enough to play the country out for their own pockets like how it often happens in Malaysia. Anyway, LKY is dead don't worry about anyone coming after you, yeah.
@@HanifHashim-c3p Transportation of industrial goods will take far too long by the sea route. SG should start building a subsea tunnel from singapore to batam and bintan first.
But some less Singapore skilled workers will lose their jobs. How? Drive grab?
Given these appointments, it is not surprising that some Singaporeans may question the potential conflicts of interest involved, as political leaders within the ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) are already tasked with multiple roles while still serving their constituents.
Even my cat is dreaming of opening Whiskas Catfood factory there!
Wow! It's so obvious that PAP is the only competent and responsible party in s'pore.❤❤
Problem is the politicians the likes of Mahathir causing flip flop policies like roti prata.
@@8spores u mean like sg
Lol.... As of Mahathir will come to power again.. He is already 99 years old already
@@umaiman3576 he is extremely corrupt
Always tries to attack the west , to hide his own corruption lol
Malaysians too dumb to realise that
They will love his anti western stand
This is how all
Muslim leaders get into power
Keep chanting , the west is evil
Easy to win elections
Chee Soon Juan said: “This unfortunate description gives us an insight into his thinking - that an MP’s role is only a part-time gig.”
It is also worth considering why a bilateral relationship-building entity such as Business China is operating under a non-profit organization, headed by individuals who hold government positions, has board members who are ministers and funded by the Tote Board, which is supposed to fund charities?
“Not only do PAP MPs work part-time, they use residents’ money to outsource to managing agents the work they are supposed to do. Managing agents are private, profit-making agencies. They add another layer of expenses for residents,” Dr Chee said.
@martinbrock713 AHTC and Sengkang also pay their volunteers to do their work. Plus got free lunch.
going JB to spend and doing business in JB is 2 different agenda.Always do your own risk management

Ceca is very disappointed...
ASEAN first
Lololol.. I’m also super interested to see how it’s gg happen
It's a No Brainer, just compare the currency exchanged alone, will save Singaporean companies nearly 60% in cost of doing business. No?
The cost will catch up in no time.
@@alexlong3714 yeah cost is rising in JB if time cost considered
as an employer I really can’t find people to work in Singapore, come interview ask for WFH, ask for this and that, damm tiring… finally as employers we have outlet…
Can’t find people is bs pay above market rate la forget about the Bentley 😂
This SEZ is only for high tech industries not for you to trade durians and nasi lemak.
As a local business owner, nobody wants you here either if your business model is just about serving yourself and make use of low waged labor instead of enriching the Singaporeans.
SG workers expectations are getting higher and higher, no doubt about it
@@fidelcatsro6948 You pay a German the German salary, not Bangladeshi salary.
🤣😂🤣😂 Who believes? 😂
Mesia boleh! I do!
Time to sell our pigeon hole or small space. Better to buy houses in JB
do share your experience somewhere
Juhor does not want the investment to be titled to the property.
