SINGAPORE: With the
economy improving, businesses in the manufacturing, construction
and retail sectors are finding it difficult to hire enough
workers.
These were the results of a recent survey conducted in October and
November this year, by the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce
and Industry (SCCCI).
It is a common feedback from leaders of SCCCI's trade associations
that they are unable to fulfil orders because of the shortage of
both local and foreign workers.
Teo Siong Seng, Nominated Member of Parliament and president, SCCCI
said: "It is the same old story where there are some industries
which just cannot attract locals to even go for an interview, put

BULL SHIT!!! Raise the salary ceilings and see IF YOU DONT
HAVE QUEUES the day ads were posted!!!
NO MORE MUST the foriegn labour policy be tweak. It only
benefits the employers, who reap the most and spend it at KTVs,
overseas trips, more ferraris for their sons and daughters, and
looking down on others!
Why should OUR LAND and economy benefit the few and make
them millionaires??!!!
Time to share the wealth around!!! To hell with MPR
theories! (Marginal Revenue Product) What the hell is MC
( Marginal Cost ) when expected profits are included in its
calculations?!!
No more must the days of fat cat CEOs and executives
drawing millions of dollars in salaries be allowed in our society,
after what happened last year with the financial crisis, where even
for poor performances they take such salaries home, money off
the back of workers toiling under the sun paying off huge bills
monthy!
No one will deny bosses their remuneration. They may have
provided the capital, but the risks are also shared by employees,
for if the company fails, the employees would be out of jobs, and
have to find new jobs, start all over again, worse for those
40 and above who sacrificed for such companies. Employees made
profits possible. Thus is it conscienable for bosses to take
the lion's share in profits instead of splitting it with
employees?
If they need cheap to labour to compete in today's
compettitive environment, then they probably do not have a good
product for the market, and should die a natural biz death so as to
save up resources for the next better player, and be one less
competitor for better companies that take cares of the welfare of
fellow citizens!.
The LAW of supply and demand
rulz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please write to your MPs so that
over greedy capitalist bosses will not fool the masses again
