We've been here before.
These people are just after cheap labour, there are plenty of people, Asian or otherwise, who would be willing and able to learn the requisite skills and plenty of local colleges able to offer formalised training and recognised qualifications but what do these guys want, more cheap labour to exploit.
Why bring people here, BIR cooking does not exist in Asia so they would have to learn the skills over here, we have enough unemployed people of all ethnic backgrounds particularly under 25's, to provide the BIR industry with chefs of the future.
These guys are just after a quick cheap fix, trouble is that only stores up further problems 5/10 years down the line and it's not the BIR industry that picks up the tab, economic and social, for them.
