Oh My God The Banglas Are Back!

Help! Beware! the Banglas are making a comeback. Hide your daughters, sisters and your wives!

The ban on the hiring of workers from Bangladesh will be lifted from August 1st in a move to ease the acute manpower shortage in the construction and plantation sectors. However the government, knowing what randy buggers they are, would impose several conditions pertaining to the import of Bangladeshi workers.

In sourcing the workers, companies or foreign workers recruitment agencies will only be allowed to deal with the Bangladeshi Association of Recruiting Agencies (Baira). Private companies can only employ 50 Bangladeshi workers directly. And workers from Bangladesh can make up only 50 percent of the total foreign manpower of a company. Those who need more than 50 workers are required to recruit through government-registered foreign worker recruitment agents. This would make it easier for the government to monitor and control such agents and be able to track errant recruitment agencies quickly. The government can also take legal action against them. Their bond can be forfeited and their licence revoked.

Malaysia enforced the ban on the import of workers from Bangladesh in 1996 following a slowdown in the country's construction sector and due to an escalation of social problems caused by foreign workers. More than two million foreign workers mostly Indonesians and Bangladeshis were also repatriated after the country was hit by the 1997 Asian financial crisis.

The so-called 'social problems' was of course the fact that the Banglas, after a period of 'acclimatisation' and learning the Malay language, started bonking Malay and Indian girls at a faster rate than any healthy rabbit could. Our 'hot-blooded' lasses, besotted with the likes of Indian movie idol Shah Rukh Khan, proved easy fodder for these libidinous foreigners. Not to be outdone were also the Indons who because of similar ethnicity, had targetted Malay women as their happy hunting grounds, and oh what a harvest they had reaped. So its no surprise that the Banglas and Indons were the first to be thrown out, sorry, repatriated in 1997.

If therefore the government feels compelled to recruit them again now, they have to be prepared for further social upheavals and protests from political parties and community-based organizations. To be fair, Bangladeshis are industrious, disciplined workers who have contributed much to the rapid construction and industrialization phase of the nation. That they have also generously 'donated' to the national gene pool should not be resented but considered as 'collateral damage'.
