I hope that our beloved PM and new MOF will prevent KLSE from dropping below 1100.看股价开始深跌点,技术分析,不要期望会有1998年八月份那种表现。大熊后的涨势,赢过任何牛市很多,除了大牛市。希望有经验过的前辈们见证此数据是正确的

Malaysia seeks 2,000 Rohingya men for Covid-19 checks, say sources
KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters): Malaysian authorities are scrambling to track down about 2,000 Rohingya men who attended a religious gathering that has led to a big spike in Covid-19 cases across South-East Asia, a security source and two other people told Reuters.
More than 100,000 Rohingya live in Malaysia after fleeing from Myanmar, but they are considered illegal immigrants. Their status would likely make many of them reluctant to identify themselves to get tested for the virus even if they showed symptoms, other sources, in the Rohingya community, said.
Malaysia's search for the Rohingya highlights the challenge for governments trying to track the virus among communities living without official papers and wary of authorities.
The religious gathering late last month at a mosque on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur was attended by some 16,000 people, including the Rohingya Muslims from Myanmar, one source said.
As well as the Rohingya, about 1,500 Muslims from across Asia attended.
Nearly 600 Covid-19 cases in South-East Asia have been linked to the gathering, including 513 in Malaysia, 61 in Brunei, 22 in Cambodia, at least five in Singapore and two in Thailand.
Malaysia has 790 virus cases in all.
Malaysian authorities have been tracking down the participants but say they have been unable to find about 4,000 of them.
"They have gone back to their families across Malaysia, it has become difficult for us to contact them. Many are afraid of admitting that they attended, they fear they will get into problems with the authorities," one of the sources, who works with the refugee community, said.
"The government is concerned that if they don't come forward, the infection might spread further."
The government had asked the police criminal investigation division to look for the missing participants, the security source said.
Police declined to comment and directed queries to the Malaysian National Security Council under the Prime Minister's Office. It could not immediately be reached for comment.
Malaysia implemented travel curbs and shut down non-essential businesses from Wednesday (March 18) for two weeks to contain the virus after the spike in cases linked to the mosque gathering. One person who attended the gathering died from Covid-19, the disease caused by the virus, this week.
Participants spent most of their time crowded into the mosque for the four-day event, but some went to restaurants, shopping malls and Kuala Lumpur's landmark Petronas twin towers, according to Reuters interviews with people who attended and social media posts.
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Malaysia told Reuters it had heard that refugees and asylum-seekers were at the gathering and it was working with the Ministry of Health to ensure that all refugee and asylum-seeking communities were included in government response measures.
"Refugees and asylum-seekers are advised to seek medical attention if they present symptoms of Covid-19 infection, regardless of whether they were present at events like the mentioned religious gathering," UNHCR Malaysia said in an email.
The Ministry of Health did not respond to requests for comment.
A 39-year Rohingya father of four, who lives in Penang, said he spent days at the mosque event with nearly two dozen Rohingya friends. He said none of them was showing any symptoms and he went to a hospital but no test was done.
"Everything's fine, no fever nothing," the construction worker said. Reuters is withholding his name to protect his identity.
Salman, a Bangladeshi construction worker who lives near the mosque, said he and many other Bangladeshis went to the gathering. His virus test was negative but the hospital calls him daily to check if he has symptoms, Salman said.
"When I went for testing, they didn’t ask for passport or work permit or any documents. They just asked for my name, age and address," said Salman, who declined to give his full name.

Job losses
Although the automation process has so far been a gradual one, Josef Stredula, head of the Czech-Moravian Confederation of Trade Unions, said based on various estimates up to 10% of jobs could disappear.
"Big changes are awaiting us," Stredula said, adding that while automation may ease the burden of heavy or repetitive manual work it was important to ease the transition, for example by retraining affected workers.
"We have to do everything to make the future not so bleak but relatively easier for everyone."
Although the automation process has so far been a gradual one, Josef Stredula, head of the Czech-Moravian Confederation of Trade Unions, said based on various estimates up to 10% of jobs could disappear.
Staffing company Hays recently noted that the average annual wage increase in the Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary of around 10% was far higher than in many western countries and estimated that almost 5% of Hungarian jobs, or 200,000 roles, could be fully automated over the next decade.
Hungarian recruitment portal profession.hu registered an 11% fall in manufacturing sector job postings last year. In the Czech Republic, Grafton Recruitment has seen a similar drop, while consultancy Deloitte has estimated around half of current jobs could be replaced by machines.
"It is only a question of when it will be more economical for most companies to start with automation on a much bigger scale," said David Marek, Deloitte's chief economist in Prague.
Not black and white
At a distribution centre near Prague, Czech yoghurt maker Hollandia Karlovy Vary installed three robotic arms last year to sort and load yoghurts onto pallets, replacing the work of 10 people who were moved to other positions.
Meanwhile, Poland's largest clothing retailer LPP plans to invest in logistics and automation in a bid to improve margins and combat higher labour costs.
Judit Kovacs, a manager at human resources company Randstad, said factories with high capacity utilisation in western Hungary had started reducing headcount by attrition over the past year, while new plants in eastern Hungary were being planned with a high degree of automation as investors looked to curb their labour market exposure.

It's not only manufacturing that is falling to the machines, insurance company Allianz's Hungarian unit, for example, is automating data processing to offset rising wage costs.
The International Federation of Robotics (IFR) expects robot sales in major Eastern European economies to rise through 2022 but although it acknowledges that some jobs will disappear, it does not foresee a major net effect on employment.
"The question is not do I invest in manual labour or automation," IFR General Secretary Susanne Bieller said, explaining that automation could help companies maintain a competitive edge over cheaper production hubs elsewhere in the world.
"You cannot see this in black-and-white terms."

Robots step in as cheap labour dries up in Eastern Europe
KOSZARHEGY, Hungary: Istvan Simon's factory in western Hungary churns out more than a million plastic parts a day but on a busy morning in one of its large production halls there is only the sound of machines clicking and whirring. Workers have all but disappeared.
Similar transformations are underway on production lines across the European Union's eastern wing as surging wage bills undermine the region's reputation as a cheap production base. Factory owners from Hungary to the Czech Republic and Poland find themselves with little choice but to invest in the automation of their manufacturing processes if they want to remain competitive.
Manufacturing in the region has boomed since the EU expanded eastwards in the mid 2000s, with companies such as automakers Audi and Daimler opening local production lines and spawning supplier ecosystems, but more recently strong economic growth has led to a shortage of workers and rising wages.
An employee walks at the Simon Manufacturer of Plastic Products in Koszarhegy, Hungary.
"We can see human labour being replaced with machinery and artificial intelligence," Hungarian union leader Zoltan Laszlo said. "Not just in the car sector... but also in the steel and machinery industries.
"Such investments can already be seen in these sectors, leading to job losses. You need to glue numerous tiny slivers together and all of a sudden you get the big picture."
Employment figures are one indication the region's industry may be at a turning point.
While Hungary's economy grew nearly 5% last year and manufacturing investments rose at the fastest pace in three years, the sector shed nearly 23,000 jobs, ending a six-year run of annual employment growth. Czech data showed a year-on-year loss of almost a thousand manufacturing jobs in the third quarter of 2019, suggesting employment in the sector could have declined for the first time since 2013 over the full year.

"There are no operators in this hall right now," said Peter Simon, chief executive of Simon Plastics, as he overlooked a line of machines making plugs for car parts, a key product line at the company founded by Istvan, his father, 35 years ago.
"Wages are going up, the prices of robots are coming down, so this is the way to get returns," he said. Looking to expand output but pressured by surging wages and falling prices, all of the company's recent 1bil forint investment was spent on automation.
The company hasn't cut any of its 400 jobs so far, finding other positions for those whose work has been replaced by robots, but it intends to automate its remaining manual work after a 50% jump in operator wages over the past three years.
