Budget 2012 Malaysia Benefits to Private Employee? Or Civil Servant?
Higher Employer EPF contribution
Government proposes employers to contribute 13% to employee who is earning less than RM 5000. It is believe that 5.3 million EPF contributors will benefit from this new policy. Is commission, OT, bonus, allowance or etc inclusive?
An annual pension increment of 2% for civil servants
Effective year 2013, government pensioner will enjoy increment of 2% of annual pension.
Tuition fee assistance for civil servants
Government is offering tuition fee assistance. These includes 5,000 masters scholarships, 500 doctoral scholarships and 20,000 places for diploma teachers to pursue their undergraduate studies.
Retirement age @ 60 years old for civil servants
The compulsory retirement age is revising from 58 to 60 years old.
Bonus for civil servants
An additional bonus of half-month salary with a minimum payment of RM 500 and an assistance of RM 500 to government pensioner.
Seem like, Budget 2012 is benefit to civil servants and not private employee. I’m afraid private employees have to work harder.

It is important for fresh job seekers to equip with knowledge when applying for a job. Remember there is no HIGH PAID and EASY job in the market. Before you engage an employment agency to find job, you have to know what is your right as a candidate.
A legitimate private employment agency holds license with Manpower Department, Ministry of Human resource (Jabatan Tenaga Kerja, Kementerian Sumber Manusia) and operating under the private employment agency act 1981. Do visit Human Resources Ministry’s Website to check on the validity and authenticity of the employment agencies. Any job search fees involved? Under the private employment agency act 1981, the private employment agencies were only allowed to collect RM 12 in registration fees.
Lastly, understand how employment scams or job scams work and be alert of what their traps are. You may read real life employment scams or job scams cases on NCCC’s website.

Data Entry Scam – My Bad Experience!
My Real Experience – Many years back, during my college time, I went to interview for a so-called home based part time data entry job without realizing it was actually a SCAM.
In fact, I went for few companies (somewhere around Jalan Imbi, Jalan Ampang, and forgot the third one) for similar job – Home Based Data Entry. Basically, the procedure of interview looks normal like others – filling the application form, wait for interview together with others candidate.
After interview, so bad, I paid them RM150 for so-called charges of administration. I was initially refused to pay for the fees, but was finally convinced by the interviewer due to my strong desire to earn more pocket money by doing some part time from home. Furthermore, their offer is attractive.
After few days, I had never received any call from them, which they had claimed that many data entry jobs in hand with them and should call me to start the jobs after a day or two.
By then, I felt something is fishy. So, I called them and questioning for the jobs availability. Unfortunately, all kind of excuses was given. Sorry! No job available now, please wait patiently…
Until a week later, newspaper reported about it, Data Entry Scam! The interview process, company setup, and tactic used are the same. Then, I realized it was a SCAM! I was cheated!
Please be reminded that never bother to pay any money for whatsoever reasons to head hunter or recruitment agency!
