Councillor: Better for Malaysians to work at home

JOHOR BARU: It is time for locals who are employed in Singapore to consider taking up job opportunities in Malaysia following the recent Causeway toll hike by Malaysia and Singapore’s proposal to match it next month, said Johor human resources and unity executive councillor R. Vidyanathan.

“Malaysians should give serious consideration to working nearer to home, even though a Singapore salary is attractive on account of the exchange rate, which is at a ratio of 1:2.5, he said.
