KUALA LUMPUR: The Government should allow all workers, including foreign ones, to form unions to protect their welfare, said the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam).

Commissioner Datuk N. Siva Subramaniam said that as a member of the United Nations and in keeping with the Federal Constitution and Human Rights Act, Malaysia should have by now automatically recognised and ratified the International Labour Organisation (ILO) Convention 87 on freedom of association.
