Learned about this 2 weeks ago. Just didnt think that it would be such a huge that would boost the share price so much.
I really wonder if they really stopped all of those services though. I will be visiting again tomorrow to confirm.
Actually the only one complaining would be those runners who depends on providing such services. Its actually cheaper for employers to go through MYEG than to brace the traffic, queues, delays, server downtime etc. Like Jalan Duta branch for example, requiring employer (representatives) to queue from 7AM and stopped receiving after 830AM.
RM 38 x 2 million + = extra revenue by simply "change of policy".
Somemore, under the MyEG renewal, IG must be bought through them, not to mention insurance cover that optional bundled when renewing time.
Encourage to renew through MyeG, save time on travelling, ok.
But compulsory must through them is another story.
Employer still need to go through hassle of register account with MyeG before can renew worker permit with them.
Mind that MYeg is not a gov entity, in the process of registration, company info, thumbprint will be obtained by a private company.
I don't think gov job should be outsourced to a private entity. Somemore, Malaysia currently is one of high gov servant vs population ratio.
For SME, sometimes it may be cheaper and hassle free for employer to renew the permit themselves through the counter.
GST already increased the workload of clerical job, now extra another job, not to mention EPF also need to submit online.
Online sometimes /= hassle free.
Another burden of keeping user name, password, clerical job.
Clerks may demand increase in pay...
