內政部：延長外勞工作准證‧餐館工廠可申請“5+5”
內政部：延長外勞工作准證‧餐館工廠可申請“5+5”
* 國內
2011-03-11 11:10
（布城10日訊）內政部秘書長拿督斯里馬末阿當說，政府將考慮將目前已經在國內工作5年的外勞服務期限，再延長多5年，而受惠的領域，並不僅限於種植業，也包括目前可以聘請外勞的領域。
他今日在文告中指出，有必要保留這些擁有豐富經驗的合法外勞，因為這與提高國家生產力及競爭力息息相關。
他說，政府之前發出指示，要求針對延長各領域外勞的工作準證需求進行深入研究。
他說：“根據這項研究，以及國家工業和經濟領域的利益，政府已決定讓目前聘請外勞的領域，落實‘5+5’准證的措施。”
政府在去年5月宣佈，只允許油棕種植業在他們聘請的外勞工作滿5年後，繼續工作5年，以解決人手短缺問題及留著擁有經驗的外勞。
較後時，馬末阿當說，所有曾要求政府延長外勞工作准證期限多5年的領域或行業，都會受考慮。
這意味著“5+5”准證措施落實後，中小型工廠、餐館、農業領域皆可申請延長外勞的僱用期。
沙外籍公民實驗室報告完成
另一方面，馬末阿當說，沙巴外籍公民實驗室報告已經完成，並提呈沙巴內閣討論。
他說，去年5月4至27日在沙州舉行開放日的實驗室作出了數項建議。全國級管理外籍公民實驗室之前也提出了本身的建議。
“沙州政府已經同意執行有關建議，而相關報告將提呈給副首相丹斯里慕尤丁3月17日主持的內閣外勞和非法移民委員會會議進一步討論。”

Govt approves intake of 45,000 foreign workers
Govt approves intake of 45,000 foreign workers
2011/02/28
"Following discussions, the government has now agreed to approve the entry of 45,000 foreign workers into 13 business sectors to meet the initial requirement, so the businesses can continue operating." -- Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam, Human Resources Minister
KUALA LUMPUR: The government has agreed to the recruitment of 45,000 foreign workers to meet the demand in 13 small-scale business sectors which are currently facing manpower shortage.
Human Resources Minister Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam said the approval was given after the government took into account the problem faced by the sectors concerned, such as restaurants, grocery shops and textile industry, which had difficulty in recruiting local workers.
"They have applied to the prime minister (Datuk Seri Najib Razak) and to my ministry through the Malaysian Associated Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry for the government to approve the recruitment of 90,000 foreign workers.
"Following discussions, the government has now agreed to approve the entry of 45,000 foreign workers into 13 business sectors to meet the initial requirement, so they can continue operating."
The minister said this after attending the opening of the renovated Wisma Persatuan Pengusaha Restoran India Malaysia by former MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu, who is now special envoy on infrastructure to India and South Asia, here, yesterday.
Dr Subramaniam said the government was in discussions to distribute the 45,000 foreign workers according to the 13 business sectors and a decision was expected to be made within a month. He said most of the foreign workers came from India.
The six-storey Wisma Primas in Jalan Dato' Haji Eusoff here, has been renovated at a cost of RM3 million to provide more facilities.
Apart from being the management centre for the association, the building has training facilities for restaurant workers who are members of the association. -- Bernama

4萬欠債人逾30歲 逾14萬人求助重組債務
新: February 9, 2011 17:44
4萬欠債人逾30歲
逾14萬人求助重組債務
報導：林苡欣
（吉隆坡9日訊）國家銀行旗下的信貸咨詢與債務管理機構（AKPK）指出，成立至今逾5年，已協助超過500人恢復財務自由，惟也指許多30歲以上的國民不善理財，該機構有多達83%或4萬1138人欠債人，來自此年齡層。
從信貸咨詢與債務管理機構成立至今，計有14萬462人前來尋求協助以重組債務。
助500人還清債
該機構營運總經理阿茲曼哈欣接受《中國報》詢問時說，在債務管理計劃（DMP）下，欠債人最長有10年時間，可償還積欠債務。
他告訴本報：“我們2006年成立至今，在這短短5年間，相信已協助逾500人，成功脫離債務。”
另廂，他今日出席“Power理財計劃巡回展”后透露，Power理財計劃主要是為18至30歲的青年而設，讓他們得以避免欠債累累。
“數據顯示，前來尋求財務重組的人，多是30歲以上，經驗告訴我們，這些人都是在20歲左右開始欠債，因此Power理財計劃是為了讓他們能盡早掌握理財之道，謹慎管理財務。”
“在前來尋求咨詢的14萬462人當中，約有5萬2947人參與債務管理計劃，累積債務約逾50億令吉。”
至于我國債務情況是否有惡化跡象，阿茲曼哈欣說，我國截至去年11月底的家庭債務約為4860億令吉，佔全國債務約55.5%。
“國家銀行數據顯示，一切（債務）仍處于可控制範圍。”

（布城9日訊）經過多個月的紛紛擾擾，內閣今日終於為台灣遊客捎來一項好消息，即大馬政府將重新讓台灣享有落地簽證的便利。
旅遊部長拿督斯里黃燕燕告訴星洲日報，今天的內閣會議深入討論讓台灣遊客享有免簽證和落地簽證的課題，最終同意讓台灣重新享有落地簽證的便利。
確實實施日期未定
“至於免簽證的問題，我們會繼續討論。”黃燕燕在上週曾透露，大馬將給台灣遊客民眾免簽證待遇，以吸引更多台灣觀光客和增加外匯收入，並希望相關部門能在今年三月前為台灣遊客帶來好消息。
黃燕燕說，內閣還沒有決定實行台灣遊客落地簽證的確實日期，因為還有一些技術問題待解決。
她強調，這項落地簽證便利只限台灣遊客和商務往來的台灣人，不包括官方來往。
政府是在去年8月間宣佈取消外國人入境申請落地簽證的措施，因為這項原意是要方便遊客進入大馬旅遊的措施已遭到嚴重的濫用；台灣人也因此受池魚之殃，失去此項入境大馬的便利。
台灣之前率先提供亞洲少數國家如日本、新加坡、韓國和大馬免簽證入境的便利；可是，除了大馬，3個國家都給予台灣免簽證，因此大馬被指未符合互惠原則。此外，歐盟、英國、紐西蘭、愛爾蘭等國也相繼為台灣提供免簽證便利。

RM20mil youth fund to be launched Friday, PM says in video posting
By RAHIMY RAHIM
PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has posted another video response on his blog to answer questions posted to him by the public.
In the latest video posted over the weekend, this was Najib's reply to a question, "Will there be further development for youth so that we can reach our full potential and so that we can slowly eliminate social problems?" by Danial Fahmi.
"I have announced an allocation of RM20mil for youth development through the 1Malaysia youth fund in the 2011 budget," he said in a video upload on his official website.
Najib said the fund was an idea mooted in a youth lab conducted last year by youths from diverse backgrounds.
"On Jan 21, I will officially launch the fund and announce more details on how Malaysian youths can take advantage of this opportunity," he said.
He said it was an idea to incentivise youths to undertake projects of their choice and projects consistent with the 1Malaysia theme.
Najib had, on Jan 12, invited Malaysians to send him any questions over Twitter and Facebook, from 4.30pm to 5.30pm.
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister, in a Twitter posting, also congratulated national hockey goalkeeper S. Kumar for being named Asia's best player and being the first Malaysian to win the award.
