VICTIMIZATION & RACIAL DISCRIMINATION

This is also another apparent yet most common reason people leave their jobs. Racial discrimination seems very subtle, yet the most offensive thing to know when the discrimination is against you, yourself.

They can start by saying, "oh we dont spoon feed staff", dismissing the fact that its the boss's job to lead and guide us as a staff, as a team player. Yet, by saying this, they can simply just enjoy the ride without guiding or providing any support for the downline/staff. A lot of hostile bosses gets away with this, just using the above sentence.

We, as the team member becoming scared to even ask, coz when we start opening our mouth, we will be labeled "needy" and need spoon-feeding, and she already said it up-front she doesnt like it. There you are, stuck, with no one to consult and no help is coming. 
Chances are, with bosses like this, your team mates will not support you either, coz they wouldnt want to be spotted "spoon-feeding their fellow colleagues" as well by the terrible boss.

When you encounter this type of boss, start updating your resume, its time to move on.
Observe how many malays, how many chinese, and how many Indians. 

If malays do have high post (ie managers or above), then there's something to look for if you are a malay. But if the numbers are filled up by clerical staff, non-executives, then look no further, this company is not for you. Get out and move on.

In my experience, malays only filled up clerical, non-executive levels and only 2 (together with me) are managers. One manager are quite okay, very sharp and subject matter expert.

The other manager, female is totally psychotic, too much worshiping the boss till we as muslim thinks that this mad bitch thinks her boss is the GOD. I'd like to think is this lady as Indian, because she is not really a malay. She looks Indian, and she has that KP (Kelahiran Peranakan) in her name, which clearly states she is not malay. She gets away with many things,  therefore, I omit her from the counting. 

Funny, but it's true, and its exactly what happened and I have witnessed this in my own 2 eyes. To me, Allah the Almighty is only one true GOD and no other worth worshiping, not even your own boss. Your boss dont own you, they dont give you your mind, body, liver, heart, health, she is just the same, like us, nothing more, nothing less.

Despite of the motto -"no spoon-feeding", there were times we can see chinese are coached, in closed doors, chinese are not shouted at, like malays do in meeting.

This type of harrasment, I would call it, is not apparent on the outside. Human resource department can simply dismiss this issue, coz they can never feel or hear or see what actually happen in the department on daily basis, because Human Resource is just Not There, not IN there like we do.
