Human resources minister V Sivakumar says many employers were bringing more workers than they could handle.

BUTTERWORTH: Human resources minister V Sivakumar has called for legal action against those who bring in foreign workers but fail to provide them with jobs. “Stern action should be taken and they must be dragged to court,” he told reporters at the Perai industrial estate here. He did not specify if he meant employers or agents.
Sivakumar said the largest affected group of migrants were Bangladeshi, as they were high in demand in Malaysia.Before the intake of foreign workers was frozen in March, most firms had requested large numbers of foreign workers, in anticipation that they would only receive half of what was demanded. When the government began approving the full number requested, companies found themselves with excess labour they didn’t know how to utilise.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.
