all the arguments and people ignore this

how much would  you pay for someone who is good in language? say you need to hire one guy for a day

Depends on what language, my boss pays top dollar for someone who can speak in foreign language because of foreign clients. If can learn another skillset relating to our field. even better

The average monthly pay of 2018 college graduates in China is 5,429 yuan ($828.74), much less than the 6,174 yuan that graduates expect... Forty percent of new graduates expect to earn 8,000 yuan per month, while 9.5 percent of them expect a monthly salary of over 10,000 yuan. In actuality, 80 percent of them earn less than 8,000 yuan a month.

China’s newest college graduates earn 4,000 yuan (US$588) a month on average – not enough to buy the cheapest iPhone 7 model, a recent survey showed. New graduates in Malaysia – whose average GDP per capita is the closest to China’s among other Asian countries – earned between US$491 and US$585 in 2015, according to recruitment platform JobStreet.

get all the unemploy graduate to kick startup and earn from current workforce. Whatever services didnt have and provide by current workforce is the opportunity to kick start it. Such as grab, food truck, food panda and may think of others idea for new opportunity. Dont ever bind inside the black box and do try to think it out.

Even, jual karipap can earn rm10k per month in peak area in KL.
Even bangla and indon selling food in construction area can earn more than rm10k per month. They are kicking us with their earning money now!

put so much effort and money for a cert, end up as above

High, NZ have severe talent shortage now. Most of my NZ graduate friends have stayed on and work there.

Whether you have the relevant fields is a different question la.

the report refers to those who's not suppose to take a degree and graduated,but still put thru the university program in order to reach certain kpi so we hv "many of graduate".

majority of them can put thru vocational school, technical school, instead of university, but they all ended being a graduate thru lower quality government university or even some private college or university who give them the diploma / degree which worth nothing.

it is not malaysia do not have enough highly skill jobs for them, it is they don't hv the highly skill to take the jobs, even for fresh graduate. some can't even speak good english. (though a lot of jobs may not required).

End result of putting mass student to come out fr university. If you are graduate with good grade and with professional skill, i don't think u can't find jobs, like what the rest posted, programmer is highly sought after as every where lack programmers, but we hv computers / IT student, who can't really program, or their skill level is in the range that no one wanna hire them.

but we hv a lot of indon, bangla who make more than 3k-4k a month, some are factory supervisor, site supervisor.

KUALA LUMPUR (March 27): Malaysians are not being paid enough for the level of productivity they are producing, with many of the country’s workers underpaid, said Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM).

According to the central bank’s 2018 annual report, Malaysian workers are paid less than their other regional peers, such as those in Singapore and South Korea.

“To illustrate this point, if a Malaysian worker produces output worth US$1,000, the worker will be paid US$340 for it. The corresponding wage received by a worker in benchmark economies for producing the same output worth US$1,000 is, however, higher at US$510.80,” the report said.

The report highlighted that this trend was particularly evident in the wholesale, retail, food and beverage (F&B) and accommodation industries, that in total make up 19% of economic activity and 27% of total employment.

It identified such industries as being labour intensive and low-skilled worker dependent, and that the reason for the disparity in wages was due to workers in such sectors having lower bargaining power, on the back of the prevalence of low-skilled –workers, including foreign workers.

As part of methods to address the issue, the central bank highlighted the urgent need to generate higher demand for quality labour, through the creation of high-skilled jobs.

“In this regard, it is vital to attract new quality investments from both foreign and domestic firms, pivoting away from the low-cost business model. Among existing firms, this can be generated through automation and moving up the value-chain, with higher reliance on knowledge and technology. Doing so requires coherent investment policies, which likely involves reviewing and enhancing existing investment incentives” said the report.

It also said it was critical to reduce the mismatch between labour demand and supply, with policies proposals including the reduction of labour recruitment costs and skill mismatches, as well as increasing the existing workforce.

“The proposed addition of one-stop job centres at Urban Transformation Centres (UTCs) and Rural Transformation Centres (RTCs)23 is a welcome development and could be further supported by linking them with existing career services in higher education institutions,” said the report.

It also highlighted that the relationship between wages and productivity must be reinforced so that wage earners receive wages that are commensurate with their respective productivity and growth, as advocated through the Productivity Linked Wage System (PLWS) — with its 10.8 million or 72% of Malaysian workers not under the scheme as of August 2018.

It also noted that labour market legislation needed to be addressed, with the possibility for the allowance of the freedom of association and the elimination of forced labour and discrimination on the cards as the last time the Industrial Relations Act was revised was in 1976.
