Sources told The Edge Financial Daily that employees had been informed of the decision and had until the end of the month to make their decisions on whether to take up the offer.

When contacted, Dell Malaysia confirmed that under the Malaysian initiative, the VSS had been offered to all the 5,000 Malaysian staff on Penang island, Bukit Tengah in the mainland and Cyberjaya. However, the actual number of staff that Dell Malaysia targeted to let go is not known.

Does HP really desperate looking for IT people? It’s very difficult to find IT people or requirement are too high in Malaysia?

I can easily found more than 120 job in recruit.net posted by HP for the last 30 days. In fact, many position are duplicate. As  I know,  HP have office setup in Damansara Uptown and Cyberjaya. So, what are you waiting for if you’re looking for job? Personally I won’t search any job either in Jobstreet or Jobsdb, I would preferred malaysia.recruit.net.

Why? The recruit.net system will allow me to search through most of the recruitment web site instead of browse each web site. Beside that, you can search by company, by dates, search suggestion, record job searches, manage alerts and get your search result by sending to your personal email.

I’m strongly recommend you try http://www.recruit.net

According to DigiTimes & AsusTek company sources, the relatively low tax rate in Singapore is drawing Asustek Computer, which is about to reshuffle its own-brand and ODM/OEM businesses, to relocate its sales and marketing operation to the region.

Following the announced spin-off of the company’s own-brand business, Asustek is considering transferring the role of brand marketing to its Singapore subsidiary, Asus Technology Pte, leaving only R&D work to be performed at the company’s Taiwan headquarters.

In fact, Singapore is one of the best well know regional office for any multi national company. Again, why not Malaysia?
