Locals are choosy so foreigners get jobs


JOBS in some sectors are given to foreigners because local workers are always complaining that the work is tough and then they claim they are unable to get suitable jobs, Malaysia Nanban reported.

The paper quoted Selangor executive councillor Dr Xavier Jeyakumar as saying that the state government had instructed factories and supermarkets to allocate 60% of their jobs to local workers. However, he added, many companies were finding it tough to get local manpower.
