Job-Hopping phenomenon (The Star, Malaysia)

DID you know? Ninety-one per cent of Gen Y employees leave their jobs in less than three years, according to the Multiple Generations @ Work survey by Future Workplace.

I CANNOT agree more with Tan Sri Raman Navaratnam on the ineffective implementation of the New Economic Policy, “Pampering will do more harm” (The Star, Dec 4). Let me paraphrase the main shortcoming of the New Economic Policy with a simple example. The implementation of the NEP is akin to having a jug with many holes at its base. No matter how much water we pour into it, the jug will never fill up (achieve the goal) until and unless the holes are filled up.
