00:00Before watching the video, I would like to remind you that there is more content on the Hotpoint website.
00:30They want to treat the lowest salary of 1,700 people as the entry salary standard for all new employees,
00:37especially college students.
00:39They want to give a reasonable entry salary based on their personal skills and education.
01:00If the employer does not provide a reasonable salary based on the skills, academic qualifications, or work content of the employee,
01:06it may cause talent outflow and fail to hire the right employee.
01:10Shen Zhiqiang said that the government's adjustment of the lowest salary is not to increase the burden of the employer,
01:15but to increase the income of employees and strengthen their ability to consume.
01:19This can also indirectly drive the business of enterprises and small businesses.
01:23The government believes that the implementation of the lowest salary is good for the overall economic development of the country.
01:29The Minister of Labor, Zafulu, also said today that when he was hiring overseas,
01:33some foreign companies also asked our country to raise the lowest salary,
01:37otherwise they would not come to Malaysia to invest.
01:39He mentioned that our country needs to increase productivity, and enterprises need to increase investment in automation.
01:45He said that there may be some concerns about micro and small enterprises,
01:49but the government also provides enough time for those companies with fewer than five employees.
01:54They can postpone the implementation of the lowest salary system until August next year.
01:59For the policy of raising the lowest salary,
02:01some industry bosses are worried that the cost will not be paid off,
02:06and hope that the government can implement this measure flexibly.
02:09According to the report of Guangming Daily,
02:11the president of the Beima Mechanical and Vehicle Parts Chamber, Ye Lixuan,
02:15believes that the government should adjust according to the difference between the region and the industry.
02:20He pointed out that the standard of living in different regions is different.
02:24For example, the cost of living in Kuala Lumpur is higher than that of East Malaysia.
02:27The profits and labor needs of different industries are also different.
02:31Ye Lixuan called on the government to provide overtime or financial support to affected enterprises,
02:37to avoid the cost increase of enterprises,
02:40which may lead to the shortage of resources or bankruptcy.
02:44Facing the increasing pressure of domestic prices,
02:46this announcement can also relax the workers.
02:49Marimudu, chairman of the Consumer Association,
02:51believes that the adjustment of the lowest salary
02:53will help workers to cope with the pressure of inflation and living costs.
02:57On the other hand, raising wages will also help to increase productivity and reduce corruption.
03:01But Marimudu is a little disappointed that the lowest salary is only raised to 1,700.
03:08He believes that the minimum salary should be increased to 2,000,
03:11especially for people working in big cities,
03:13and should not compromise on salary issues.
03:16Although the adjustment of the lowest salary will be implemented in February next year,
03:20it has not yet entered 2025,
03:22and some industries have already started to increase their prices.
03:26The chairman of the Business Association of the Dama Muslim Restaurant, Jawaharlal Nehru,
03:30said that the cost of labor usually accounts for most of the company's expenses.
03:35Raising the lowest salary and tax evasion will directly affect the enterprise,
03:40especially the catering industry.
03:42Business owners have no choice
03:44but to transfer these additional costs to consumers.
03:48The Business Association of the Dama Muslim Restaurant pointed out to the Newspaper
03:52that a new round of adjustment will cause the price of catering to rise by 20% to 30%.
03:58In addition to food, the cost of kindergarten and kindergarten will also increase.
04:04The Dama Muslim Kindergarten Association and the Dama Registered Nanny Association said
04:08that more than 4,500 members will raise their salaries next year to cope with their operating costs.
04:16Among them, Jawaharlal Nehru, the honorary consultant of the Kindergarten Association,
04:19told the Daily News that the increase in salaries is not only due to the increase in employees' and teachers' salaries,
04:24but also the cost of food, teaching tools, rent, and water and electricity.
04:30The Nanny Association pointed out that next year,
04:32the national nursery's salary is expected to rise by 13% to 20%.
