Stolen jobs,
Most of the guys that Sriwijaya were taking on were ex Batavia so they got preference of expats and 250 hours locals. If any locals waited a year that is why. Not that the "expats" were taking all the spots.
Don't forget also, Sriwijaya were happy to take the money from these people so maybe poor little 250 hour local guy should complain to the management of Sriwijaya instead of just saying its the expats fault.
Msian, can you please tell me where in Indonesia "smoking and chatting" isn't done on a constant bases making getting anything done in that country takes months instead of days?
