I cannot agree with that what's going to happen to our people you bring low cost in definitely low cost will win out.
My own current job is also soon to be exported the function is still the same but at the higher level they think it's cheaper for the function to operate from overseas even though we been profitable for many years so how does having better skills come in to play? I see the excuse is always about improving margins and it's never enough there needs to be a balance but always never the case jobs will usually go to where it's cheaper but not necessary better.
I agree with invest101 you need to build your nest egg I disagree with rider having better skills makes a difference, it's the cheaper that makes a difference.
Years ago at another mnc I offhand comment to my manager my pay was very low his reply to me that in their thailand office they can find someone with equal skillset like mine my pay here can support 1.3 person there, win already lor so what could I say? how to fight with low cost?
