the so called doctored creential i.e. pay slip - shouldn't even be considered one of the "credentials".

Ask for certs or testimonials, thats fine. Why are you even bothered about his current payslip in the first place?

If u really suspek he faked his celery. U should ask him straight honestly, say due to past employment history from his company, the celery range is a little too high and u just want some more verification due to employment act bla bla bla....

I mean if a guy will fake his celery, he prob will back stab colleague during appraisal

People should tell their MP / government to enact laws to make it illegal for employers to ask job applicant's salary so that 1. Salary negotiations would not be lopsided, 2. Talents can eventually earn up to their potential rising out of middle income trap, 3. More talents can be retained in effort to develop the economy into high income economy.

Example of states adopting such laws: https://www.hrdive.com/news/salary-history-...es-list/516662/

If the company already decided to hire him and offer him that much of salary, i find it illogical, absurd on the borderline of personal jealousy by TS to request the payslip and then proceeded to doubted it.

If a company cant hired based on their budget and has to based in of apllicant previous salary but doubted the information provided, it should not be hiring in first place.

Now working. Go home write more..haha

whats the point?
these things wont ever get passed in 3rd world countries where corruption is so blatantly a part of everyday tasks.
money is money and those in power with the ability to change people's lives will only see what they can gain from each and every action they do.

be like the rest of us, work hard and efficiently to be able to leave this god forsaken country.

Donkey years ago, no one taught bn would fall. Today, some changes have happened.

Yes, 3rd world country is not easy. Lots of thrash gets shipped here.
Corruption ongoing struggle. People still being controlled by edu and religion.
Still everyday you bath, eat, wake, go to work despite these circumstance and odds.

Life is so difficult yet you and so many have time to surf internet and /k
I hope you and many more can spread this idea.
Tell your MP that you want a law to protect working class.

Trump is powerful too, yet in the link reveals some state has amended this law.

If majority in /k here can spend some time and effort away from racing to tell their MP, I believe it is possible.

It is nice if you and everyone can go to a place where you are like, treated well, respected to live.
But not everyone can afford, some have to take care of family who cannot travel.
Remember your teachers who taught you and friends who helped you.
Maybe they cannot migrate yet. So if you have compassion, I hope you will decide to help.

This god forsaken country is where you and many grew up.
Kacang, tolong jangan lupakan kulit.
Thank you.

noice generalisation you got there
can people stop using this "oMg BN lOst AnYtin iZ pOssIBru xDDDD" to support their arguments?
it's just childish

people should realise a case is gone when they see one

Yet you cherry pick to ignore states that have enacted laws against employers asking salary?

Change is not possible when people are racing.
Change is not possible when you don't believe.
Change is possible when people tell their MP to change.

there are many ways to verify,
like calling your friends in the current company of candidate to verify
like calculate & esimate candidate's current pay & how desperate are them based on CTOS statement
like telling candidate to login bank / epf account show you the history of the amount credited

only lose job when found out get called out in internet,
but no worries malaysian all beta one most of the time they just suck it up
if u do it few more times u get promoted for saving money totally worth it
