Subsidies Need Slave Labour to Survive

(At the other end of the country, hoteliers in Johor bemoan the gravitational pull of Singapore. The Star newspaper highlighted the saga on its front page recently, with complaints from executives about the scarcity of foreign labor needed to clean rooms, handle check-ins and keep the lights on. “It is challenging for hotels here to compete with employers in Singapore as locals can be paid three times higher for doing similar jobs,” Suhairi Hashim, director of Tourism Johor, told The Star. )

The salaries need to be 3 times higher because no subsidies. How to pay such high salaries? You charge more to customers lah. If customers cannot afford to pay high chargers, do not go to Singapore with no subsidies. Foreigners go to Malaysia to enjoy subsidies. Strangely still more Foreigners are willing to pay high unsubsidised prices in Singapore, but not to Malaysia that need to rely on slave labour to survive. Because free labour prefer to work in Singapore at high salaries despite high cost of living due to no subsidies. Engaging in slave labour is very wrong in Islam so we pay the price for abandoning Islam. You see, once you break one of Allah's rule, you need to break even more rules, but the end result is very clear, total destruction on earth, no need to wait for the hear after/akhirat.
