Another funny thought …

In order to relieve the labour shortage, Government has authorised the recruitment of 100,000 Pakistanis, which was being offered by the Pakistan government.
Probably due to its urgency, Home Minister Datuk Azmi Khalid wanted them to come as soon as possible, even resort to waive the induction course. Quote:
"We need the workers urgently. So to speed up the (recruitment) process we will exempt them from taking the course. But the medical check-up is a must."
I thought he understood the purpose of induction course at first place, and to exempt new workers taking the course won’t do any good for the country, most probably the same illegal immigrants issue would take place again in the future.
By coming out with this ruling, does this mean that, induction course is "not that important"? If so, might as well scrap it, after all, it’s all about tax-payers money, isn’t it?
Chinese proverb has a says: "Don’t slap your own mouth".
What you think?

When I first read about it, I thought this could qualify to your list of funny things politicians say.
If we need workers, why the hell send the back in the first place? Shouldn’t a better alternative be sought to solve THE REAL PROBLEM?!
Then again… I nearly forgot, this is bolehland, apa pun boleh jadi!
