Vagrants in Johor Baru hold regular jobs


NUSAJAYA: Forty per cent of the vagrants found in Johor Baru hold regular jobs in Singapore and earn between S$1,000 (RM2,561) and S$2,000 (RM5,123) each month.

Johor Women and Family executive councillor Asiah Ariff said the homeless in Johor Baru were different from that of cities like Kuala Lumpur as a lot of the vagrants here earn enough to sustain a living in the city but still choose to sleep on the streets.
