rm3k per month? local worker monthly salary rm1.5k-2k, banggla rm1k, that rm3k few months cover back, and banggla don't simply runaway & change job like local workers or maids, so that rm3k very fast recover back and the rest becomes savings.

i believe most bosses are smart enough to use their calculator for simple calculations like this to make out whether it's cheaper to hire locals or foreign workers. statistic shows foreign workers are preferred among local F&B businesses especially around Kuala Lumpur & Penang.

i don't know what is the current rate for Banggla waiter vs Local waiter, maybe you can give some numbers.
