The Largest Number of Foreign in Malaysia Become Worst

The Malaysian economy expanded rapidly in recent years. Giant construction projects run smoothly. As a result, there is an extensive employment opportunities and resulting shortage of labor. So, Malaysia is now the focus of immigrants who want to seek lucrative. But the entry of illegal immigrants who have been problematic. Without control and prevention system that systematically ascertain this would be a cancer to the country.

The main problem is the difficulty faced by the government to combat the influx of illegal immigrants this. The police, the military, and the Immigration Department had to work hard to apprehend them. They were detained and placed in temporary detention camp. Foreign embassies were less cooperative. State money spent to manage these detention centers. This scenario would also lead to relations between the two countries would be tenuous. Service and other requirements that must be met to claim .. This causes a lot of energy, money, and time wasted government in an effort to prevent the entry of illegal immigrants.

Our social security is also threatened. They fled to Malaysia to escape the raid authorities of their home countries. Some of them have AIDS, tuberculosis, sexually transmitted diseases, and so on. The arrival of immigrants, especially the undocumented, also cause problems with housing. They will be looking for a place to build housing for their area.

1.0 The initial

Term workers are people who work (usually for a fee or earn), a person who holds an office (in public or private services) in accordance with Council Dictionaries and language to Library New Edition in 1989 began a letter 607. While foreign term is coming (coming from ) regions or states, non-local, non-native: a lot of people or not part of the place in question. DBP dictionary New Edition 1989 m / page 61.

The presence of foreign workers in our country is not an alien thing and often the talk of the town and the major issue at the moment. Workers or foreign workers who attended the meet virtually every sector of employment in our country for example in the construction, manufacturing, field, or agriculture, as well as services such as restaurant, laundry, washing, or cleaning and so on.

1.1 STATISTICS illegal immigrants (PATI)

According to government figures, until 31 August 2003, a total of 1,153,069 foreign workers working in Malaysia in various sectors. According to the breakdown of 355.782 employed in manufacturing, construction (297.642), maid (230.926), farming (181.605) and services (87.144). Whereas according to the latest statistics, legal foreign workers until March 1, 2004 were 1.2 million people, the same number of undocumented workers in this country. Foreign workers legally employed in the state sector involves maid 240.964 people, manufacturing (390.552) perladanganm (326.764), construction (204.254) and 77.149 people.

Statistics for each sector in 2014 is different when compared to the statistics in 2003. There are sectors that showed an increase in volume, but there are also some which show a decrease in the number of foreign workers. However, the presence of migrant workers to Malaysia has become a "trend" and this unstoppable despite all the efforts taken by the government and related agencies.

As has been stated by Tenaganita Director, Dr Irene Fernandez, Malaysia still and heavy reliance on foreign workers. Even at the present time there are over two million foreign workers in the country, including illegal migrant workers. This follows from their own willingness to do the dirty work, dangerous and demanding nature of extremities. While Malaysians no longer want to do this kind of work.

Thus, in the last year alone the government has decided to hire more foreign workers from 12 countries including Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Pakistan and China as well as making them increasingly important welfare issues.

Due to the many foreign energy, the construction industry is one industry that is synonymous with the word '' foreign workers ''. At present, it is estimated more than 600,000 people are employed in the construction sector, including 109.020 foreign workers legally employed but illegal migrant workers is higher, thus proving reliance Country of labor is still high.

While, however, according to Human Resources Minister Datuk Dr Fong Chan Onn, recruitment of foreign workers is only an interim step which is to meet the needs of critical sectors. Further, the Ministry of Human Resources is responsible for developing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with some source countries of foreign workers so that the government can control the intake of foreign workers more regularly and ensure they are brought in on the real needs of our economy and not to compete with local workers.

The arrival of foreign workers would have to work in a country that has many job opportunities, especially economic, construction, and business services. Foreign workers can be classified into two types of workers who come in legally and workers or dating through the back roads of illegal immigrants (PATI).

Workers who come to Malaysia legally generally determined occupation, employer, place of residence and has undergone through various processes to qualify as a worker. They were subsequently granted a work permit specified period of their work in this country. These types of categories of workers have valid travel documents, free from infectious diseases, have a valid employment contract and does not take much of a problem to society. Employers are also responsible to provide accommodation, food and medical services.

The second category is immigrants who never go through the process as the first category. They also do not have valid travel documents, penyakitberjangkit high risk and as tuberculosis (TB) and easily exploited. PATI were arrested for various offenses, immigration and crime only because the government imposes forced to bear the costs of detention and delivery to their home countries. Cases that are more complex, such as images have serious implications for their countries of origin. Cases that are more complex, such as images adverse implications on the country of origin of immigrants concerned.

2.0 FACTORS INCREASE FOREIGN WORKERS

Influx of foreign maids in Malaysia are caused by their withdrawal in Malaysia alone and also factor rejection of their country of origin. Malaysia is actually a 'goldmine' who do not want to be extracted by the locals themselves. 'Hole gold' in the sense that too many jobs here but local people are less interested in enrolling mainly be maids. Attitudes do not want to 'bound' or 'trapped' cause they switch to a sector that offers so much more bearable and comfortable. Therefore, local employers are forced to take foreign maids to fill the employment sector.

Based on answers to written questions by Senator Dr. S. Ramakrishnan to the Minister of State in the NOTICE TO QUESTION THE NATIONAL COUNCIL SESSION July 2011 concerning the number of foreign maids working in Malaysia, the statistics are as follows:

State Sector MYANMAR NEPAL BANGLADESH INDIA INDONESIA

Maid 189.391 64 63,114,497

There's many foreign maids from Indonesia because of geographical position of the country, namely Indonesia and Malaysia are almost beside the language and cultural factors are almost the same.

In addition, the attitude of the employers that provide protection to foreign domestic helpers have become a catalyst for the convergence factor them in Malaysia. They feel safe working here even partly do not have a valid permit.

Immigration regulations and policies hiring is very loose in Malaysia. Issuance of permits issued to foreign workers arbitrarily without taking into account the real needs of the employer. Foreign maids are allowed to work for three years and may be extended annually up to the fifth year. Employers can apply to extend their work permits of foreign workers over the next five years for foreign workers who are regarded as skilled workers.
In addition, the Malaysian national security as an attraction to the maids, these foreign nationals to reside in here.In the Global Peace Index (GPI) 2011, from 150 countries who made the survey, Malaysia ranked 19th - the safest in world. This position is based on a survey Economic Institutions and Global Peace, based in Sydney, Australia. These conditions ensure their safety to stay here. It is very different to the situation in their home countries like Indonesia, Bangladesh and Nepal are frequent political upheavals and wars.
Moreover, poverty and unemployment in the country of origin cause foreigners willing to leave their homes simply to come to Malaysia to earn a living. According to Prof. Klara Meliyanti Kusharto (Professor of Nutritional Sciences, Faculty of Human Ecology, IPB Indonesia), based on the data specified by the UNDP, Indonesia is a country with a Human Development Index (HDI), the lowest in Southeast Asia. IPM Indonesia is far below the Philippines ranked 97th danThiland 92nd. As you know, most of the foreign maids working in Malaysia were from countries mentioned above.

3.0 IMPLICATIONS OF ARRIVAL PATI

According to statistics, the Government of Malaysia in 2003, a total of 1,153,069 foreign workers employed in various sectors in Malaysia. Whereas according to the latest statistics Immigration Department on August 31, 2011, a total of 2,320,034 foreign workers in Malaysia, where a total of 1,016,908 people are migrant workers was legitimate and 1,303,126 people are unregistered foreign workers (immigrants). Over 50% of migrant workers are immigrants who could have negative implications in various aspects (Ministry of Interior).

Here we will discuss the negative implications of foreign workers or maids to state beforehand. Implications of foreign workers or maids will be discussed in terms of Economics, Politics, Security and Social Issues.

3.1 IMPLICATIONS FOR SOCIAL ISSUES

Various social problems occur as a result of the influx of foreign workers, imagine foreign workers in Malaysia, currently estimated at 10% of the total number of people in Malaysia compared to the third largest ethnic group in the country, namely India, which only account for 7% of the total population of Malaysia. Therefore, with migrant workers and ethnic diversity coupled with their socio-cultural, social problems are the largest negative impact in the country.

Recruitment of workers from Bangladesh was suspended on February 6, 2002 for a moral cause many problems in this country. This group is often reported harassment (sexual harassment can be defined as) the wife or daughter of the local people in public without shame and without guilt. Immoral behavior that has led the fight with the local population (Focus, July 2002).

Foreign workers who come from Lombok Indonesia often lead to social problems. These social problems also can be categorized as a crime, namely organized crime. By custom wedding Lombok, Sasak have marriage customs are quite unique and is still practiced until now. If a guy wants to lure girl, they will come home with the girl shows all of its advantages of manners, courtesy, hospitality, religious knowledge, obedience or even wealth. Lombok youth is also in love with a show full of love and only allowed to come to her house just after Isha until ten o'clock at night. The youth will escape the girl if it was time for them to marry. This will introduce the boy to the girl's family and after that it will send to the village chief spy girl.

Lombok marriage customs is extremely inappropriate practiced in this country that has its own customs. However, the influx of foreign workers, mainly from Indonesia's Lombok bring their culture here even they practice their culture was here and lead to various legal implications as well as social. These things can divide families in Malaysia. Cases of Lombok Indonesia Workers who carry off girls locals psychological injuries her family.

3.2 IMPLICATIONS ON ECONOMIC ISSUES

Statistics in 2006 showed 90,000 people were unemployed Malaysians. Meanwhile around 242.190 or 3.8 percent of the 6.3 million school children across the country failed to finish school up to grade five (Department of Statistics).

Therefore, the economic sectors affected households with jobs filled by foreign workers, while locals were not able to enter the job market. Government through the 9th Malaysia Plan has made human capital as the core of both of the main thrusts of the national mission. The effectiveness of efforts to generate human capital can be measured from the number of foreign workers who still fill the spaces employment sector (Soijah Binti Lily 2005).

The economy is in fact closely related to immigrants who are in Malaysia. If the arrival of foreign tourists accounted for 43.0 percent of revenues in the services account of the balance of payments, foreign workers also drain the money in the country to their home country, reaching billions of dollars a year and this has hurt the country.

3.3 IMPLICATIONS FOR SAFETY

The local public security, certain sectors and countries as a whole ranked harmful if rates of immigrants in this country are prohibitive. A total of 77 people were detained residents Africa since January to October 2011, while 66 of them were drug dealers while the rest are drug addicts (Narcotics hill Aman).

Africans have come to Malaysia under student status and come to Malaysia for the 'fill job vacancies in the sector of drug trafficking'. Their modus operandi as simple as entering the country using a student pass.

In addition, immigrants who entered illegally are heavily involved in crimes such as drug abuse, trafficking and property crime. According to statistics, although only 4:57% percent of the 37,817 (Plan Issues @ 1) only involving immigrants, but it is still dangerous because people outside the country should have access to the other country to commit crimes.

Foreign workers will gather on festive holidays such as Eid celebrations. In Kuala Lumpur, during Eid celebrations in 2007, tens of thousands of immigrants gathered in major venues in the capital such as KLCC and Dataran Merdeka is causing the commotion, dirt, vandalism and other crimes.

4.0 GOVERNMENT OF MALAYSIA

Malaysian Government through the Cabinet of Ministers decided on the need for foreign workers

/ Maids in this country is based on the needs of countries using

employment outside by the development of a rapidly developing country.

The rapid development of the country has begun to be felt since 1970 'an again until now guided Malaysia Plan (RM) 1 to RM (9) nine now set up by the Government of Malaysia. In order to realize the dream of the country's rapid development, the need to establish a policy or policies specifically for foreign workers is necessary to regulate and monitor will need foreign workers / maids for the needs of the country. The rationale that the population of 28 million people have maintained their importance even using foreign workers from abroad.

The implications of spillover economic prosperity prosperous country and political stability during which assures the presence and influx of foreign workers or foreign workers already inevitable. Relaitinya many jobs are included in the field of employment and gross weight (heavy work and hot work) and high risk, many local residents are not willing and able to do the job. To accommodate the voids jobs will be filled, the recruitment and use of foreign workers is inevitable.

Foreign workers / maids working in Malaysia are derived from the National Resources of countries that supply foreign workers such as Indonesia, Thailand, Myanmar, India, Pakistan, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, China, Bangladesh and Pakistan.
