Dear All, Living in this border-less world to
migrate or not to migrate is a choice and core essence in human right
fundamental. Let us not delve too much and make racist comments
here.We have to accept the fact that people migrate everywhere
and every time is a non-issue in most developed country nowadays.
Especially when they feel there are better prospects elsewhere.
The main factor or the key motivation of migration
which remains to be the endogenous cause is remuneration and wages.
It was estimated that the difference of wages between destination and
source countries is between 3-15 times. This remains a key push
factor of migration. In this challenging world it can be
difficult to change this temptation of life. More than what each of
us want in life, such as wealth, status, uptodate lifestyle, self
esteem and many more factors that keep ascending the ladder of human
wants and achievements. Than the ideal way of life, freedom in
almost every aspect of human intellectual capacity.
Especially to those who has lived most of his adult life
outside his country of birth (admittedly not as a refugee but as a
probably somewhat privileged professional), I am quite sure that -
the above brief list of temptation to migrate are the main
reason to stay in those so call better places.
Frankly having Talent Corp to lure back Malaysian's professional
is sort of changing one more thing of a norm in nature. Attempting
the "impossible". It's not going to happen, unless when
Malaysia is a fully develop and just like that nations of choice for
the professional.
So why even bother, to have this Talent Corp thing?
I fully agreed with the idea that "instead of trying to lure
Malaysians home, why don't the government look into why these
talented and brainy people are leaving in the first place? Such as
why medical doctor in a government hospital are paid less than those
director of a department which only have general art degree?
And what about those who chose to stay and "Berkhidmat Untuk
Negara" despite being offered a greener pasture? Where and what
are their incentives and rewards? "
Like it or not, there is no short cut to this issue. Flat rate 15%
tax, seems not to be the right attitude in luring professional
Malaysian abroad. I don't know are we dealing with commodity or human
value and wants?

government going to achieve this?
Getting to know them, understanding their attitude is completely a
different experience or learning in building a nation.
Honestly, their experience will be able to inspires every people, the
experience that leaves us all thinking "what want they have,
their wanting for better life, their wanting to enjoy the rewards of
having such professionalism" and many more wants.
However, as from the very begining of my comment "brain
drain" is a common issue everywhere. Apart from the lure of
remuneration and wages other aspect of living life do have some
motivation and the wants to migrate.
Just one simple line to illustrate that unfulfill wants;
How can one possibly live together if one doesn't even understand
each other?
After more than 50 years of Merdeka, I reminisce the early years
of self reliance where our father, parents and grand parents of
various races live harmoniously together in the spirit of Muhibbah
and now the loud banging of 1 Malaysia, yet, till now we question the
justification of NEP, harping on racial equal rights for
education,housing,job offering and many more ..are we all now
drifting apart, despite that, so call being a professional and
knowledgeable? Or just the over politic-king by the monkeys from the
"political zoo".
Hopefully, we are able to really identify our wants sincerely. If
than, to migrate is the best thing to do to fulfill your wants,
by all mean please do so for the sake of your professional life and
me being an senior citizen of this nation, Malaysia wish you all the
best. I am proud to be Malaysian, for Malaysia is always able to
export talent!!
A professional should think alike..think professionally! unless
you are a political asylum..seeking justice from a faraway nation,
..bashing the system outrightly is so obvious than.
