MEF ; Drama Tanpa Irama

ONE of the biggest cry babies in this country is the Malaysian Employers Federation, who always wants to push all the hard work on to the Government's lap.

CASE in point, is the MEF statement that READ : MNCs unlikely to hire locals who failed English, Maths.

DOES the MEF have a valid point? YES, they do but that is besides the point. The point is apart from bitching about it, what is the MEF itself doing to retrain the SPM drop outs who are not linguistically inclined in English, that are already in the work force?

READ : Since 2017, Thailand has been paying Graduates who are proficient in English between 15 per cent to 30 per cent more.

HAS the MEF any policy in place to pay a higher salary to those who are proficient in English ? HELL NO .

NEVERMIND, about paying more, how about language upskill courses for those already in the work force by the members of MEF itself?  Is there a policy in place for this? AGAIN the answer is a HELL NO.

THE MEF, should ask itself what has it done as a federation to tip the scales in favour of those who are not proficient in English, upon leaving school, rather than keep harresing the Government on what it should be doing.
