00:00A group of employees and a union of colleagues rejected the suggestion of implementing minimum wage based on the country,

00:08with the excuse that the base will cause various problems.

00:12Malaysian Employment Agency President Syed Hussein Syed Husman said that although the suggestion from the Malaysian Employment Agency

00:19looks good in theory, its implementation will cause problems.

00:24Syed Hussein explained that a minimum wage based on the country will create unequal competition,

00:30where trade in the country with a lower salary will have an advantage over companies operating in the country with a higher minimum wage.

00:39He also added that an unequal salary system can cause income gaps,

00:44which ultimately pushes employees to emigrate and the lack of workforce in the country with a lower minimum wage.

00:52On January 31, the FMM proposed that the implementation of a minimum wage in the future

00:57takes into account the model based on the country or region to better reflect the local economic reality

01:04because the current RM1,700 surplus can burden businesses in underdeveloped areas.

01:11Malaysian Employment Agency President Effendy Abdul Ghani also said

01:16that the implementation of a minimum wage based on the country can lead to wage inflation,

01:21where employees in the country with a lower salary may maintain a low salary due to the lack of ability to pay more.

01:30He also warned about the risk of companies moving to the country with a lower salary to reduce unemployment,

01:37which can cause the loss of employment in the country with a higher minimum wage.
