Yeap folks, it happened again. On 18 March 2008. Still same place as the previous one, in 17 October 2006, which was in Were Road. Sorry to take such long time to publish these photos and coverage. And sorry for some blur photos. My dad was driving way too fast.. Perhaps he was shy to bump into his ex-colleagues? :P

This time, the picket was held in protest for the rumoured out-sourcing of several key TM units, namely HR, Operations units, etc. Actually, in my opinion, these type of core unit outsourcing has several pros and cons. The pros, of course is that TM can save cost. But the cons, it may become hard to monitor those outside people and in the end, they may tarnish the TM name.

Second reason being the unfair distribution of ESOS (Employee Share Options Scheme). This time around, the offer is based on job rank and no more years of service. As such, people who just started to work (like me) tend to get the same amount as those who had worked for quite many years.. haha.. For me, of course I don’t complain :P

Anyway, enjoy the photos and see ya later. I am sure there will be more pickets. :D
