Good news for PG residents who are working for SONY. No job cuts.
Congratulations!
KUALA LUMPUR: At least 15,000 locals have had their jobs “certified safe” – thanks to a turn of events in Japan.
Sony Corp in Tokyo, hard hit by the global crunch, has decided to downsize and move part of its operations here to save costs.
Japanese Ambassador to Malaysia Masahiko Horie (pic) said that with this development, up to 15,000 Sony em- ployees in the company’s four plants in Malaysia could keep their jobs.
The envoy said Sony EMCS (M) Sdn Bhd managing director Satoshi Okawa relayed the good news to him at a recent briefing.
“Besides cutting costs, Sony Japan’s shift here is also in recognition of the excellent infrastructure and facilities available in Malaysia.
Horie said Japan was pleased with the progress and advancement achieved by Sony in Malaysia.
“Malaysian personnel trained at Sony’s plants here have been posted around the world to take up managerial and other key posts, and have been playing a very important role.
“Their skill level is very high and this is another reason why Sony Japan picked Malaysia to move part of its operations.”

ReplyDeleteNot true.
Actually they are offering VSS to 200 workers.
Main target is those working 10 years and above.

10 years and above, that's a substantial money for VSS. But with the economic situation it is difficult to know what can happen tomorrow. I also heard that AMD has retrenched 700 workers? True?
