Hi

I am really sad when I hear comments like this.    Not sure where you get the facts from. As I mentioned in my previous posting, it is not in the SAP field in Malaysia. Where can you get foreign SAP professional cheaper than Malaysians ? If you can, let me know as I would like to inform my friend who maybe interested. They get the same pay as local if not more. No one will want to leave their country if the pay is lower than their own country. It's not like maids, petrol station attendant, waiter @ coffee shop...etc that you see everday. On top of that, companies have to pay flights yearly, work permit fee & the hassle of applying/renewing work permits. So, please ....please don't have this misconception in the local SAP industry.

The real problem is mentioned in my previous post. Malaysia is very short of SAP professionals, especially those who wants to get involved in the technical area. As most companies here are operating in offshore environment, some flexiblity in working hours is required. Again, locals will shy away from this. So, what choice do companies have when they have a business to run ?

Wake up please ! This is where you need to show Malaysia Boleh rather than run away. 

Really sad perspective looking at things. There is always demand for Malaysian consultants as not all customers are cheap. The issue here is not enough willing Malaysians to fill the roles. Stop moaning !!

Hi, your statement below :
============
UNLESS YOU ARE EXTREMELY DESPERATE:

1. Apply HCL-Axon (work in India office). They hire and train a lot of ABAPers there. You get paid in Indian rupee and you are not consider as an expat there.
============

Have you validated the info ?
As far as I know, they are not paid in Rupees but Ringgit. The pay is very competitive in Malaysian market. There are no other companies in MY  that can provide wide range of SAP exposure. So, if they train Malaysians & giving people chance to goto into SAP, why are you complaining ? Get the facts right. I am not working for Axon but I have friends there.

If you were given the option to join a small consulting firm in SAP BI versus Accenture Consulting, which one will you choose and why?

Im doing lead generation for SAP on behalf of a BPO co, more towards mktg I woudl say. I dig the specky german chicks from SAP whenever their bosses visit our site.

what is sap ?? @.@~

pls do not underestimate the role of an abaper (although i'm not abaper too), doesnt matter u're in tech or functional...both are core people in projects/support and complement each other

lol i guess another reason is that being in ABAP meaning less interaction with the business.
