Why discriminate against Banglas?
Grateful MalaysianPublished: Mar 22, 2006 7:31 AM | Updated: Jan 29, 2008 10:21 AM
I am quite disturbed that we have now targeted Bangladeshi workers under the justification of them causing social problems because of them marrying local women. Why just target them if this is the issue?
Many Indonesians as well as many Caucasians foreigners also are up to the same mission once they are here. Why has no one said anything about them?
These Bangladeshi foreign workers have contributed immensely to our progress, especially in the construction sector and we must not be ungrateful to them.
In fact if you ask me, they are doing the work most Malaysians shun. But at the same time we paying over the top for Caucasians (who also marry locals) although locals are more than willing to do their jobs.
Is it because the Bangladeshi stays in some work camp but the more elite foreign import stays in Bangsar and Damansara Heights with swimming pools and dog care paid for by the company?
We must be always fair and even in our application of our local laws and wishes.
