Amazon is planning to expand its local workforce in Singapore as it aims to add more than 200 jobs with its new office at Asia Square.

200 jobs je kita tak nak

current headcount already 1000+ bro. ni tambah on top of that

even in sg also tarak guna ,they dont ship to malaysia directly

We don't want this type of company

- assmin

Low quality jobs not for Malaysians.

DA GE country pakai lalada shooopee je

Dun support bezos

nice. i thought i am seeing things.

amazon already at sg for some years already

JeMin: we only go for hi-tech, hi-end, hi-valued investment

google, Microsoft, amazon, facebook etc regional HQ all there

we lost big time. of coz the govt is totally silent about this

assmin : we are selective
ini bumi milik oren kito, must give 51% to us otherwise no license for u

assmin : janji ada petronas cukup la

10 sotong kia work as pak guard for 2000sgd. Then can darab 3

Was watching CNA channel last night, saw SG got new 3b USD investments from a European company if i dont recall wrongly, macam is to build factory. I wonder SG still got so much land to build factory? Thought they wanna preserve some for greenery too..

Then why you post on Lowyat forum here which is hosted on Amazon Cloud?

Bodo serupa ini machiem

land fill bro

takde land, we make land

why do u think illegal sand mining is so rampant in MYS?

Malaysia only wants more RM2 burger stalls.

Ini semua Sarahan Wee Ka Siong punya Cabbage confirmed.

It’s a joke / sarcasm

this 200 jobs is premium collar, not white or blue collar

Kita pilih...

last time grab HQ in PJ. then UMNO lords happened to walk by.

now grab HQ in Singapore.

no collar type. developers mostly wear hoodie

Pls la Malaysia no need amazon this kind of company here.

We only need ppl like rohingya

Reduce frm 51% to 50% mayb got chance but then maybe not cuz ur maruah and entitlement worth shit on international level. Lol

janji ada cabotage

will we get amazon malaysia?

I like it

their buying power high

Mesia cannot match

betul...no moneh...
just rajin angkat tangan dan sebayah

We got Azminzon.

We got MARA digital mall

They are quite at the sweetspot.

Sgd not as high as usd but much higher than neighbor. So expat feels atas at a discounted price with 1st World facilities.

Singapore. Ke arah worker drone society.

At the rate they are going, letting in so many FDIs, Singaporean owned businesses will soon be a thing of the past.

A quick check on HWZ forum and you will see a lot of sinkies complaining about CECA and foreign talent taking away their jobs. Not sure how much of it is true though.

But ringgit lemah baik untuk FDI right?????!
Cibai the blue ocean strategy thinkers at MITI.

well, our side not that bad la... so far we only have Microsoft commitment to build data centre in KL soon.. not too bad, but could be better of course if it wasn't for the silly cabotage

70% of their GDP is from MNC afterall.

We don't need them. We don't

after so long....?

need to build the HSR

oh ya damn. surely malaysia happily will supply sand and kayu to them...

kito tak nak Amazon, kito nak Taliban.

biar depa bikin ape depa nak bikin, kito bikin 51% bilo depa dok siap

Come here 51% why comr

That’s why we should be grateful to be in Malaysia. Here, locals still have a fighting chance to make it big doing some small business.

That’s the problem with this forum, lots of ungrateful kids who have no loyalty to King and Country. All waiting to migrate to greener pastures without realizing that Malaysia is still best.

Sorry for the angry rant. But true story, ya.

Everything also in SG. What do we have here

Syok sendiri.

ok azmin said we didnt choose them

Loyalty to h.m and country for certain. The issue is those in power segregate the people, oppressing those different in religion or race.

no thanks

Amazon in SG i like 5 yrs back.. wat de heck is this

High rise factories??

we don't support yahudee company..... if company from taliban this is ok

Porsche...?

You do know that other countries are no better, sometimes worse. There is racism everywhere. And worst still is that being a migrant means that you are being treated as second class.

At least in Malaysia, it’s mostly just words that they don’t mean, just like brothers and sisters arguing. If at all. The neo-nazis in other countries will try to hurt you physically on top of it.

Were you physically threatened in public here in Malaysia because of your skin color? Did anyone yell any racial slurs to you from across the street? Spray paint your walls with “Go home, chink chong”? No? Then you probably have not experienced a proper racial attack.

Malaysia is a great place to stay and start a family. Think about it, do you really want your kids to be exposed to negative elements like porn or guns?

We don't really need all these high tech jobs in Malaysia. We need more good factory here. Factory provides good blue collar jobs, support our SME's as vendor, get all the kampung people out of tanam jagung.

We are not high income nation like stinkapore, Amazon come here will benefit only few.

Why no cum here?
We have cheap cheap office space to rent
Our IT guys also very talented and smart
Cheaper celery but skillset, knowledge and attitude is all world class.

Hi tech industries no need, We here only want sawit, got sawit, cukur la.

What is sotong kia ??


Surprise pikachu face???

bodo amazon bodo singkapork

Unlike other countries, racism and religious discrimination is institutionalized in this country.

Go read up on what America is doing to the Native Americans aka Red Indians. While you are at it, please see what they are doing to the Aborigines in down under.

Malaysia is mostly all talk as it’s mostly words. Like siblings arguing and throwing hurtful words around but in the end become friends again.

I don’t blame you. Grass is always greener on the other side for a lot of people who have not been there.

At least racism is not institutionalised or official policy in the u.s and Australia.

Those live in coconut shell, their world is the coconut shell.

Ok bro. Whatever you say. I guess living on a destitute desert land that nothing grows because the government exchange your fertile land for sand is not institutionalized. And more black and Hispanic men than white men in federal prisons? That’s probably a coincidence too. Lol.

Those who talks of greener pastures everywhere else but here have probably never set foot outside for long periods of time.

Most of those who shout aren't capable of migrating anyway nor are capable of making any bussiness. So they just vent their frustration on other factors never blaming themselves in the 1st place.

People who capable of migrating know there's no such thing as Greener pastures, every country has her own shit. Win some lose some.

You can discredit u.s and Australia however you want but still can't justify institutionalised racism.

Further investment $$$ and commitment to SG
Solidifying it’s position as the regional HQ

By Amazon

I hope Malaysia remains poor and MYR depreciate so those who earn foreign currency feel rich

US marked our cuntry as terllorist cuntry,

I once ordered a collectible .. they dun wanna sent to there due to that reason..
Had to detour to HK then to here..

well played

+1

Malaysia is the land of milk and honey. Even a food stall operator selling specialty French fries in east coast can make so much money. Malaysians love to eat and a lot enterprising individuals are making a lot of money selling their own versions of nasi lemak, burgers etc.

Even Ramli Burgers, a home grown brand is now a multi million ringgit business. Chinese entrepreneurs also made it big here, for example, 99 Speedmart being a rags to riches story. Indians? Lots of successful Indian businesses here like Lotus group.

Like earning a living wage instead of striking it out on your own? Lots of well paying jobs in malaysia like programmers, bankers, lawyers, private school teachers, doctors etc. You can easily earn more than enough to support a very nice lifestyle with those wages.

DaGe said here we still got Shopee,lasapda.

They have their own data centres too
Lulz

Even Dr.M he sendiri said malay itself not competitive, for sure our Menteri all busy power grab and sit duck after got power.

With them continue as captain of the boat ... don't see the boat can soar high and far... but remain stuck at shore ...

Dr M know he farkup a few generations when his policy raised not competant malays, then now he comment the malays not competant.

Literally is ownself slapping ownself if you study closely.

You are giving example of people who are capable of making it.

As for wages, well it's true that wages increase hasn't been able to keep up with inflation, but marehsian overspend on the first place with household debt level at 90% of disposable income. They BBB goreng property then now are miskin and need someone's else to blame.

Malaysia gonna launch new Amazon to compete with them
just like mara digital.
go go Malaysia

Malaysia janji mau 51%

Only about 4% of adults in this country have over USD 100k net worth and households debts Vs GDP is among the highest in Asia said otherwise.

Singkapork call malaysian jiuhu kia. Jiuhu is calamari aka sotong.
So easier to call sotong kia

what you said right on the point. SG employer like multi racial employee LOL. the capable malay and indian are there working happily.

the rest use drone bots

Government bad policy, people so relax.
Go yumcha, go pray, public holiday almost double of Singapore.

Then need hire 5 fella in Malaysia to do 1 person job in Singapore from all the sap kok Lu attitude.
currency exchange 3x also cannot cover.

Kekw we dun need these kind of low quality investment

Haha butthurt to the max...
Yup Malaysia pro in attracting Bangla and Pakistan textile companies to invest here. Hahaha

You mean CECA HQ?

Many of faang employees are lbgt. Lbgt is illegal in this country, why they need to risks harassment or arrests to set up shop here?
