Pribumi wants to create 1 million jobs within 5 years by making dirty, dangerous, and difficult (3D)" jobs attractive.
Syed
Saddiq says they will spend RM1 billion (per year) to create such jobs -
or an allocation of RM1,000 per year per person for each of the
additional 1 million people.
There are several issues with their plan.
Firstly,
the total number of unemployed people right now is about 504,100 - and
this includes people who are in between jobs or just graduated and in no
hurry to take up a job.
Our
current unemployment rate is 3.4% - which is essentially full
employment. There are already lots of jobs available out there still
which people do not want to take up.
So,
where would the additional 496,000 locals come from? Or do they expect
an additional 100,000 people (graduates and all) to come into the job
market every year all taking up 3D jobs?
The
second problem with PRIBUMI's plan is that they only want to spend RM1
billion per year for these 1 million jobs - meaning RM1,000 per person
per year.
This works out to be only RM83.33 per person per month.
So,
PRIBUMI's plan is for Malaysians to become construction workers or
garbage men or rubber tapper by paying you RM83.33 extra compared to the
migrant workers who are now taking these jobs.
Based
on the minimum wage of RM1,000 per month which most migrant workers are
on, PRIBUMI expects you to take up those 3D jobs at a salary of
RM1,083.33 per month.
Do you want to be a garbage man for RM1,083.33 per month salary?
Get real, PRIBUMI. You only simply talk and make promises that simply does not make sense.
You're not very smart are you, Syed?
And even if they spend RM10 billion extra per year, the wage would then still be only RM1,833 per month.
Do you want to be a garbage man for RM1,833 per month salary?
Even
if they spend RM40 billion per year extra instead - which is of course
is unsustainable since this is equivalent to the entire GST collection
per year which they also plan to abolish, the wages would be RM4,333 per
month for each of the 1 million workers.
How many would want to be a garbage man for RM4,333 per month - even if this is possible?
BN's
current transformation plan to upgrade and train workers while creating
high-value knowledge based jobs is infinitely better.
The
ETP had created 1.8 million new jobs from 2010 to 2014 and another 1.5
million new jobs by 2020 - with very few not from the 3D sector.
It is better that BN continue to promote mechanization and automation to replace 3D jobs.
With Pakatan, you get to have subsidised dirty, dangerous and difficult jobs instead.
LSS.

So it means ..
Vote Pakatan if your dream career is to be a drain-cleaner, grass-cutter, garbage-man or domestic maid.
How stupid can Syed Saddiq and Dyana be????
