In my personal opinion, it's not about race. I'm working in a company that's mostly chinese and I call you that my management is just as f-ed up as any torture chamber. I don't see much improvements in the company and when the staff voices out feasible improvements, it falls on deaf ears (meaning, one side in, the other side out). And my boss always say, "Ok, if you want to do it that way, it's ok. You will know what will happen at year end appraisal". Now tell me, is that a threat, or is that a warning? I'm not stressing this point again and it's not meant as a racial remark, but the person who spoke about the ".... year end appraisal" is a chinese dude. As far as my experiences goes, chinese seems to have this super terror habit of "cut cost" while increasing productivity. It is like paying for RM10 petrol on a empty tank car, and expecting that car to drive all the way to England.The govt plays just one part, and the rest of the part is played by the company. Companies always expect the staff to build the company, but the company doesn't help build the staff's life. Now a days, it's even hard to get married if the guy is earning RM3k and the girl also earning RM3k. Basic calculations will easily show the reason why. Also, many people are getting married later and in line with that, they are having their first babies a lot later. Imagine a wife having her first baby at, let's say, age 29. By the time the baby grows up and is able to get a job already, it'll be another (about) 24 years later. Meaning to say, the children will get their first job at about 24 years old. By that time, the mother would already be aged 53, close to retirement. Which also leads to a late retirement age. The cost of living in malaysia has gone up almost two fold. What used to cost RM1 is now costing almost RM2. Ever since Pak Lah took over, cost of living shot up in a short time BUT the salary increment is at the very minimal level.The govt, I would believe, knows about this and not surprisingly, NOT doing anything about it. Even the executives are getting salary that are just OK OK, what more the lower income group. And that's why when the lower income group gets desperate, they end up becoming thieves and robbers which explains why my japan made 2-piece enkei rp01 rims (not many in malaysia) are stolen not long ago from my back yard store area. And all this leads to me not wanting to cast my vote cos I think it makes no difference which party wins or lose.Another part is played by malaysian customers. Many malaysian customers are so f'kin demanding, that their service providers or vendors are left with almost no choice but to cater to the customer's needs even if the company have to kill their own wives or husbands for it. Many malaysian customers (meaning, malaysians being the customers) think that they pay RM1, they will get BMW 7 series. And because of retarded competition and companies dying to keep their customers, they become slaves to the customers. When this happens, the customers are spoilt for good and adapt to the "RM1 can buy a BMW 7 series" trend. Then, everything screws up. And that's how, generally, it works.</blockquote>
