Help! Work stress!

Work is eating my life out! Less time to exercise, less time to relax and less time to enjoy every other things other than work! Why can't Malaysia companies be just like those advance countries? It's all about money, status, competition, etc. Life shouldn't be like this. It seems that if I can't finish my work I would be giving bad impression to my immediate boss and that wouldn't look good at the end of the year where my performance will be judged. Almost everyday working more than 9 hours and it never seems to be enough. Weekends also all about work. Life shouldn't be this way. It should be something more meaningful.
