I remain Malaysian but work oversea. My second son NUS graduate now Singapore PR and soon Singapore citizen.
My reason for working oversea is because of opportunity to build something great from a green field and also for a better pay so that I can better provide for my family.
My career path: Production Executive - Production Engineer (SAB) Shift Manager (Tioxide) Engineering Manager- Business Development Manager (SAB) General Manager (MM)
malaysia export skilled talented brains, eg. doctors, engineers, architects, scientists, lawyers malaysia import non-skilled muscles, eg. maids, labourers
why? because we dont appreciate smart skilled talented ppl! and we are super obsessed with Race & Religion!everything and i mean everything must tie to Race & Religion!
Many Johoreon already daily cross over to Singapore to work as labourers. Nothing wrong to work as labourer as long as you earned an honest living with better pay.
By the way no one can be as lucky as KYY born at the right time with right qualification to build a career and retire early to become a full time successful investor.
For many of us better build a career first before you want to be a successful investor.
@speakup, not obsession, but rather the case where race and religion seems to be "fear factors" that politicians & policy makers prefer to instill to continue to rule, not realizing that these are factors that really held us back for years when compared to other SEA countries, including Indonesia.
After all the rich and talented left, the remaining poor Malaysian Chinese will need to deal with the bumi who blame everything on them. Malaysian Chinese will have tough time ahead. Many came to this forum to look for ways to migrate?
70 years after independence, Malaysia has not been able to make every Malaysians speak in Malay only. Instead near 100% of Chinese kids go to Chinese primary schools together with about 15% of Malay kids. Indeed the government has failed and will continue to fail . Not bad for failing.
Duh,chinese is 30 percent in malaysia(include sabah and sarawak).Who say many people left malaysia.few k left per year not really left(as msny who are rich),wanted a second or third citizen(different places).it can.
According to him, Malay accounted 57.9 per cent (17.7 million) of the population in the first quarter 2024 (Q1 2023: 17.6 million), while Chinese, Indians and other Bumiputera remained at 22.6 per cent, 6.6 per cent and 12.2 per cent, respectively.
How will Malaysia be in 30 years relative to rich countries of today?
I will say any ASEAN country Gdp will grow better than the G7 country over the next 30 years. Not just Singapore did well in last 30 years. Look at the improvements in Malaysia Thailand Indonesia Vietnam over the last 30 years. More of the same in next 30 years.
Saying 1M left or 2M left makes little substance. The minister should give himself and country a breakdown of the demographics. Who are these? Graduates? Race? Age? Earning potential? The stats are well known, but if successive political party just shy away from releasing the real statistics, they are paying lip service and worse, deception of the public and the future of the country. No amount of free trade zones, semiconductor program, center of (sub) excellence will help. Until some leader brave enough to discuss the real issues, this is just nonsensical fluff you can safely stay in your emigrated place.

Various factors beside RM, politics, future policies, etc. Many years ago, during Mahathir's time, they already know Msia is slowly heading towards "Holland". Education (private and semi-private, like MCA punya college) in Msia is all for money only and labour exploitation (lecturers handling multiple tasks, paperworks, admin works, other depts work, organizing events, etc), it is mostly customer-service oriented education. Forget about quality education in Msia unless you have money to go to top tier private univs.
