I am totally aware of this, ROL. You quoted me out of context when I used the word "normal"...It seems to me that an investigation of a company, no matter WHERE it is in the world, would not include withholding of employee wages for 5 months? What one (investigation of company for fraud) has to do with the other (employees paychecks withheld) somewhat escapes me. And yes, I do realize that company funds were frozen. Obviously working people have few rights in Malaysia then.

Hello all, just was wondering if anyone new if the press in Malaysia is open to print info on the investigation? It might be out in the news that the investigation has had some progress. I know that in the U.S. it would be all over the papers. Just a thought.

Can any one of you confirm and verify that former employees of PIPS is getting paid???
It's good to be back after 6 days of ban. I was banned bec they did not like my comment.

badger,

Jees, that's hard to believe. Actually, I must have said something to upset a "watcher" myself. I had my little hand slapped also.

The point is that as much as the negative viewpoints are deleted and oppressed, they will be heard eventually.

To coin a phrase, "we just have to be patient".

Children ask better questions than adults. "May I have a cookie?" "Why is the sky blue?" and "What does a cow say?" are far more likely to elicit a cheerful response than "Where's your manuscript?" Why haven't you called?" and "Who's your lawyer?"

Actually right here in the US -I waited for 2 years before the court sent me a paycheck for labor hours -- the only problem is I only got a check for 20% of the amount the company owed me -- it was funny, because I could not figure for weeks why I got this ch3eck in the mail, but I finally tracked it down to the labor claim I had made ( Basically the company was sold to someone elso and he bought it undeer the conditions that he was not responsible for past debts) ( I worked at that ompany for 5 years afterwards __ but for the last month while the previous owner was in posession -- I only got paid 20% of my monthly pay 2 years later)-- so I don't quite agree.

Nobody should have to wait this long to be paid for hours worked, especially if the employees never lodged a complaint. An investigation under normal circumstances would never impede workers from getting their paycheck. HHMMMNN

That's terrible! I stand corrected.

So, once again....No one really knows anything on this topic?

You know....ex-employees being paid? Anyone?

Hearsay and speculation!!

This is very good news I would believe. former employes would not be getting paid if something good wasn't happening :)

Looking forward hearing more good news on this!


God bless you all
