PETALING JAYA: The government should standardise the levy fees for the extension of foreign workers who have worked in the country for more than a decade at RM2,000 for all sectors, says MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong (pic).

“At the end, the entire levy will be borne by the employers, so why not standardise it at RM2,000 as what is imposed on the agriculture sector?
