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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
