PETALING JAYA: New applications for Category 3 expatriate employment passes for jobs paying below RM5,000 will only now be accepted on a case-by-case basis with priority given to technical jobs, said the Immigration Department.
This comes on the heels of a recent announcement by Human Resources Minister M. Kulasegaran that the government is phasing out Category 3 and Category 2 expatriate employment passes in a bid to open up more job opportunities to locals.
