After losing jobs in Singapore, some Malaysians look for their next meal in the streets of Johor Baru

[TerrexLee]

The streets of Johor Baru city centre, once abuzz with business activities and visitors from across the border, are now dotted with individuals who sit and wait for free food and handouts from generous passers-by.

A number of them can be seen hanging about near the old KTM station in Jalan Tun Abdul Razak, at the Laman Tun Sri Lanang outdoor carpark and in front of the shop lots in Jalan Ibrahim.

At times, the carpark resembles a campsite with towels or clothes hanging on tree branches, while some piles of dried leaves are used for a small fire to ward off mosquitoes.

The number of people in these places has risen significantly since the first movement control order (MCO) started in March last year.

Except for Sarawak state, the other 12 Malaysian states including Johor has been placed under the MCO until Feb 4 to curb the third wave of the coronavirus in the country.

In JB, many have chosen to live on the streets after they lost their jobs in Singapore.

Companies recruit malaysians upon graduating, or the regional hq in sinkie pinch them from malaysia office, maybe due to ability to comunicate in 3 languages. They get company housing and car loan in malaysua, but paid in Sinkie $. Plus housing. Thousands every year.

Malaysia, as long as tbey maintain the affirmative action and bumi quotas, will regress further. Its because laws and regulations hinders local businesses from operating efficiently.
