MEF: Only a small number of firms wants minimum wage delay

PETALING JAYA: Workers should not be too upset over the 4,500 companies asking for a delay in the implementation of the minimum wage policy as this number is considered small, says the Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF).

The companies which asked for the delay make up just a small percentage of the total of 650,000 active, registered companies in the country, said MEF executive director Shamsuddin Bardan.
