Immigration

It is no doubt that the government is dealing with problems like this. Illegal immigrants have always been a problem in the government’s desk. It really made me angry a little bit when they call them “illegal” immigrants. You know, to me there is nothing illegal. Let’s look into a better perspective, they are just undocumented workers. That’s it. It’s nothing like criminal. Nowadays people would perceive and group them together that the “illegal” immigrants would do some criminal act in our country. I mean there are a few cases but it’s not the most of them right? I mean really, if somebody broke into my house… and vacuumed… I mean I might be a little bit confused, but I am not calling the cops…

            However, some people are just so arrogant, so hard on the undocumented workers, getting so hard on the people who weren’t born here. Most of the people are coming here to have a better life, or even start fresh…. You know, let’s give them a fair shake. And plus, there are many Malaysians I would love to trade out for a couple of undocumented workers.

            Look at those people who work in the Indian or Malay restaurants or even the Mamak stalls. I would say that most of them are undocumented workers. They have brought us some positive impact in our country in terms of the variety of food. Plus without those people working there in Mamak stalls or restaurants, would you want to replace them? Would you want to work in those restaurants and earn an income that is estimated to be below RM1700 a month? Most of you would agree with me that you would not want to work in those places since we are living in a sophisticated society. To them, the income is to be considered a lot and there are plenty of job opportunities here compared to theirs’. Without those people, you can kiss your love for Roti Canai or Mamak food goodbye. I mean there will still be a few in the society whom are legal, but I’m sure it will be packed with people and then you would stuck in the traffic, lining up to eat instead of feeling the freedom to enjoy and  just sit wherever you want in wherever you seek for a Mamak stall.

            I am just not satisfied of how the government would choose such word like “illegal” to label those undocumented workers, and the arrogant people who would took this matter seriously and making life so difficult for both parties.
