今日爆大鑊!又一家馬來企業集團完蛋了!首要媒體Media Prima業績斷崖式崩潰慘虧,近萬員工變相大裁員!巫統媒體江山大勢已去!
更諷刺的是納吉這邊高喊巫統要執政千年,巫統的喉舌《首要媒體集團》那邊卻率先敲響了千古喪鐘!
巫統全面掌控的上市媒體公司Media Prima驚傳業績正面臨斷崖式的崩盤慘況,在巫統召開2017年度全國中央代表大會前夕忽然宣布,今年上半年竟然累積虧損高達1.71億令吉!同時決定2018年1月執行強制裁員計劃!
根據首要媒體發言人透露,集團屬下近萬員工已經收到公司裁員通知書,提供他們兩項選擇:
其一:停薪留職半年至一年。員工停薪等於無限期休假,無需上班,只保留名義上的賓主關係和職位不變,形同掛名職員。期限屆滿後恢復正常上班,但若需要,管理層有權延長期限。
其二:每月只工作半個月,另外半個月休息;但只領半個月薪金。
首要媒體發言人表示,所有員工都必須從中選一,沒有第三種選擇。
這個消息等於在巫統代表大會上口沫橫飛極盡吹牛皮能事的納吉的臉上又狠狠的摑了一個大巴掌!
這是緊隨著國油Petronas大裁員、大馬郵政公司大裁員、馬航大裁員之後,另一家巫統掌控的官聯公司又大裁員了。巫統口口聲聲捍衛馬來特權,保證馬來土著特權一族豐衣足食,原來就是這樣保證的嗎?就憑這樣差勁的表現,納吉怎樣執政千年?只怕千年等不到,巫統早就千古咯。
首要媒體Media Prima旗下擁有TV3,NTV7,8TV,TV9四個電視頻道;FlyFM,OneFM,HotFM,KoolFM四家電台及New Straits Times,Berita Harian,Harian Metro三份報紙。在全盛時期,首要媒體集團每年為巫統帶來數億令吉的凈利,是巫統其中一項主要的經濟來源。
但是自從10年前開始,網絡媒體逐漸普及化,閱讀報紙、收聽電台和看電視的城市人越來越少,首要媒體的收入來源逐步萎縮,最近5年的萎縮情況進一步惡化。
根據首要媒體的財務報告,2016年全年的盈利已經從每年超過3億令吉萎縮剩下4500萬令吉。
2017年一月份,首要媒體就已經針對年齡滿50歲以上的資深員工推行《自願提早退休計劃》Voluntary Separation Scheme,簡稱VSS計劃。接受這項計劃的員工,一般獲得不錯的補償;假設你已服務25年,離職時的月薪是6000令吉,乘以你的服務年資就是RM150,000.00;再加上恩俸金及其他補償,你一次過可以領取超過20萬現金,提早享受退休生活。
據悉,截至今年上半年,接受VSS計劃的資深員工超過300人。但是明顯這還是沒辦法阻止首要媒體業績斷崖式的崩盤!
本月初,Media Prima在一項新聞發布會上承認,集團業績面對斷崖式崩盤,電視、電台及平面媒體廣告收入急劇萎縮,單單是今年上半年6個月內,集團虧損額就創記錄達到1.71億令吉;最新單季3個月的虧損就已攀升到駭人的1.01億令吉!
因此集團不得不採取更嚴格的斷臂行動。集團建議屬下近萬名員工接受兩種選擇。
其一:停薪留職半年至一年。員工停薪等於無限期休假,無需上班,只保留名義上的賓主關係和職位不變,形同掛名職員。期限屆滿後恢復正常上班,但若需要,管理層有權延長期限。
其二:每月只工作半個月,另外半個月休息;但只領半個月薪金。
首要媒體發言人表示,所有員工都必須從中選一,沒有第三種選擇。
當然,首要媒體主要員工絕大多數都是馬來土著。巫統掌控的公司竟然這樣對待馬來土著自己人,還說什麼《誓死捍衛馬來土著權益》,自己卻如此剝削自己的馬來土著員工;真的是沒有最撲街,只有更撲街。
2018年1月份開始,幫巫統賣命的媒體人將不得不接受殘酷的命運安排,薪水減半或完全無薪,怎樣過日子?更別說花紅獎勵金咯。。。
After voluntary separation scheme, Media Prima offers workers 『career break』
EMPLOYEES of Malaysia's largest media group have been given the option of a no-pay career break, a sign that not all is well in the industry amid glowing reports of the Malaysian economy.
At a town hall meeting yesterday at the Media Prima head office in Bandar Utama, Kuala Lumpur, employees were encouraged to go on unpaid "career break leave" of six months to a year, or work half a month for half pay.
Various sources told The Malaysian Insight that employees who had served the group for at least three years could apply to do one or the other immediately. Those seeking a career break will be able to commence leave next month.
Earlier this year, the media conglomerate introduced a voluntary separation scheme for employees above the age of 50 to cut operational costs.
Sources said the management spent the minutes in the townhall talking about the challenge new media presented to traditional media.
They urged the employees to cooperate in the company's transformation plan to adapt in the internet era.
"Right at the beginning of the meeting, the company management said that the industry had changed, and a lot of companies had taken this step (of offering career breaks to employees). Media Prima, therefore, must also make strategic changes."
The conglomerate recorded a net loss of RM171 million for the first six months of the year, compared to a net profit of RM45.16 million for the same period last year.
This was due to lower revenue from television and newspaper advertising.
It recorded a net loss of RM101.08 million in the third quarter of the year.
In 2014, it implemented a mutual separation scheme. Some 39 people, including several top executives and anchors from its TV stations accepted the scheme.
Media Prima owns a stable of TV stations, newspapers and radio stations. These include TV3, NTV7, 8TV and TV9, New Straits Times, BH, Harian Metro, FlyFM, oneFM, HotFM and KoolFM.
