Sime Darby Plantation group managing director, Mohamad Helmy Othman Basha

KUALA LUMPUR: Sime Darby Plantation Bhd’s (SDP) report on the assessment of allegations regarding forced labour used in its plantations is now close to completion, group managing director Mohamad Helmy Othman Basha said.

He said the assessment that was conducted by an independent ethical trade consultancy was delayed due to the government-mandated COVID-19 restrictions across Malaysia.
