Mahathir says low wages of dirty jobs better than no wages.

PUTRAJAYA, May 1 ― Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad reminded the nation's workforce that so-called 3D jobs may not pay well but were still honest work and vital to the nation’s development.

“If they don't work, other people will work. Our many flows out of the country. We become poor and the unemployed have no income. We can't give free money like last time .” Earlier during his speech, Dr Mahathir said the government was aware of concerns about the influx of foreign workers into the country.
