The view of Outsourcing and Telecommunications Association of
Mauritius (OTAM) and the Mauritius Software Craftsmanship Community
(MSCC) is that "We lack manpower to push forward the ICT/BPO
sector". OTAM suggested that "Eliminating barriers and attracting
foreign workers is certainly the way forward for the ICT/BPO sector.
Take, for example, the textile sector".
Will software developers and system administrators in Mauritius be
offered a decent monthly salary when it will be possible to pay a
foreign worker Rs 6,000 a month?
I read
http://logan.hackers.mu/2015/08/danger-mauritius I know
several cases of persons outside Mauritius who have left well-known
companies after a year or so for another company where they are
offered a better salary. I would not call that disloyalty. That
ability is, as you mentioned, known as negotiation.
