1.5 Million Applied For 57,000 Civil Service Jobs !! - From the Blogs

What is happening in Malaysia, instead of having an expanding economy, stronger Ringgit and expanding job market, we are seeing a contraction and it is at breakneck speed. Soon we will be exporting out multi-talented Politicians from the ruling Party to test the overseas jobs markets. Maybe she is the first for our export of manpower

or

Bit no worries they are the same

So what happened to the 1.45 million who were unsuccessful?   Can they all become Uber or Grabcar drivers?  Are they all gainfully employed? 

Shouldnt it be a cause of great concern that 1.5 million people (5% of the population) feel that a Civil Service job should be the career of choice ? 

We need new jobs in manufacturing, in the services, in agriculture, in tourism, in the financial industry, in fishing, farming, imports and exports, trading, entrepot trade.

We need to abolish foolish restrictions and non competitive behaviours in our economy.

1.45 million people did not get a gomen job. What will they do? Remain in their part time jobs, selling 'kosmetik halal' for the girls or 'baucer diskaun' for restaurants and credit card companies for the boys ?

Here is a simple hint. To grow our agriculture for example, to create new jobs, new areas of agricultural growth etc let the people who know how to farm, cultivate, grow, plant and harvest food do what they do best. Do not obstruct them. 

Help them, regardless of race, religion or language. This way we will become a world power in agriculture in no time. They will know what to do. Then we train our young people to keep up with them, to work with them, to grow and learn with them. Win win situation.

If we train young people to be good and skilled workers, no employer in their right mind will NOT offer them a job. 

It is so easy.  I learnt this myself personally. I have taught this myself to other young people. It works.  

There is no excuse to be poor or to suffer hardship, year in and year out, generation after generation.
