Contractors Association of Malaysia issued a statement Monday, urging the government to be introduced ASEAN, China and India, foreign workers as soon as possible to meet the manpower needs of the construction industry unabated.
Our Country is facing a serious shortage of manpower, the Government continues to try to relief, the problem is bound to the continued deterioration in turn have a negative impact on the national economy. “The total cost of 70 billion ringgit in 2008, the construction works, construction manpower of 50 million, the gross value of construction work now raised to 90 billion ringgit, a rough estimate, the country must add at least 100,000 construction workers, and to make all projects completed on schedule..” said the formal president of Contractors Association of Malaysia MR WONG.
Usually the twists and turns in construction work, contractors operating improperly or do not know self-love, the second is the fiscal situation occurs at the source, then the human resource issues.
Committed to promoting a number of development projects, the government must plan the manpower for developers and builders, for the rapid and stable development of the construction industry, the Government must live to fill the number of foreign workers.
The construction industry because of the manpower shortage problem fall into adversity, is a misfortune of the country, however, unrestrained foreign labor, but certainly not the best solution to solve the problem, once the economic downturn, the construction projects put slow, surplus of foreign workers will pose a threat to internal security.
