Your writing indicates that you are from the human resources or have experience from this department.
You quote the BNM GP4, tightening of the labour markets, and what not to illustrate, delineate, and perhaps reprimand those who have an inkling of an idea in leaving the corp for greener pastures to just nip it in the bud.
It is customary of those from this side of the fence to come out with such an outlook. While you have indeed defended the rights of an employer over their employees, you have glaringly failed to at least highlight the rights of an employee or staff over the former.
Ok, lets cut the story short and provide a case in point. Not so sure what is the practice over at your corp but if staffs were indeed made to work on declared public holidays, are they paid in accordance to the stated law (read: Employment Act 1955)? Rumors from the the mill indicates that this is not the case or is it? Care to pray tell?
Pay public holiday rates, bosses told
KUALA LUMPUR: Employers must pay their employees public holiday rates if the latter are asked to work today, says the human resources minister.
This is in accordance with the provisions of the Employment Act 1955.
Minister Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam said alternatively, employees can opt for a paid day off on another day as stipulated under Section 8 of the Public Holidays Act 1951.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had on Wednesday declared Dec 31 a public holiday to mark the national football team's win in the AFF Suzuki Cup for the first time, ending a 14-year wait to lift the cup.
"When it falls on a public holiday, and when employers need workers, then they must oblige and pay accordingly," Subramaniam told a press conference here yesterday.
Employees can lodge complaints with the Labour Department if their employers fail to pay them public holiday rates.
In Kuala Terengganu, the state government announced yesterday that since the public holiday fell on Friday, which is the weekend holiday in Terengganu, it will now be replaced on Sunday.
The announcement was posted on the state government's official portal, www.terengganu.gov.my.
This also means that classes for the new school year in Terengganu, which were supposed to begin on Sunday, will now commence on Monday instead.
In Kota Baru, the Kelantan government has also declared Sunday a public holiday.
Meanwhile, the Orientation Day and registration for Primary One students for the 2011 school year will take place as planned, the Education Ministry said in a statement yesterday.
"(Still,) parents are advised to contact the respective schools to find out when they are having their Orientation Day, as it is up to the school's administration," said the ministry's deputy director-general Datuk Noor Rezan Bapoo Rashim.
It is understood that schools that have scheduled their Orientation Day for today are proceeding with it, as the new school year begins on Monday.
"The ministry has already sent out letters to all schools, notifying them that they must complete all preparations before the first day of the school year.
"Schools that fail to do so will receive show-cause letters and must answer to their state education director," said Noor Rezan.
Alternatively, schools can opt to replace the public holiday at a later date.

Basically the RM5 per meal and RM5 transportation are valued on current market rate. In average having a decent meal in KL area roughly cost about RM5 and fluctuates somewhere there. Besides the example I took for RM5 (average public transportation cost) for FRSEHIES, as you don't expect them to own a car since it may be their first job and i took the example of taking public buses, trains and taxis which appear to be common cases here.
