‘Flaws in starting salary proposal’


Sivakumar says the market should decide the salary scheme for new graduates.

BUSINESS associations are against the proposal to offer a starting salary of RM3,000 to technical and vocational education and training (TVET) graduates.

Johor South Small and Medium Enterprise Association advisor Teh Kee Sin said that it would be unfair to diploma and degree holders if employers started paying RM3,000 to TVET graduates.
