Migrant Workers.


The movement of people from one place to another place is not new phenomenon.For centuries people have been on the move for one reason or another.demand for both skilled (see picture above)and unskilled workers has grown rapidly in Malaysia.Malaysia import so many foreign workers from neighboring countries and does not mean that we have not enough people to work.The problem doesn't lies on people,it lies with money.
Imagine how can you survive with few hundred ringgit monthly salary or Rm2.00 ringgit per hour with cost of leaving getting higher day by day.But not to migrant workers a few hundred or rm2.00 per hr. will see this is a good salary comparing to their home country and for most cases,accomnodation is provided which they will be able to work and save money for home.

The picture above show how skill is the migrant workers installing roof to high rise tower.
