2f2 Migrant

Comprehensive system need to be implemented to record data of employers and migrant workers so that no one can run away from their responsibilities. The system can record how much expenses for first employer paid to bring in one migrant worker, let say 10k, when Migrant worker had resign or run away, the second employer need to share the expenses. Migrant worker court needs to be implemented to protect employer and worker’s rights. Malaysia employers right also need to be protected by easy and fast to apply work permit for undocumented to avoid pay more than 10k to agent with corrupted money or get summon more than 10k if caught use undocumented workers. Employer should be able to get immediate approval like apply MITI allow business letter online so that no one will want to employ undocumented worker but subjected to online medical report and system data check to no serious dispute with previous employer and no serious criminal record. All migrant workers need to pay EPF, SOCSO and income tax monthly so that they are protected and contributing to our country economy.
