Furniture makers: Hasten permits for workers’ dorms

JOHOR BARU: The government should speed up the approval process for furniture manufacturers to set up dormitories for their foreign workers, says the Malaysian Furniture Council.

Its president Khoo Yeow Chong said the council has reminded its members to carry out strict monitoring of their workers’ dormitories to ensure that all Covid-19 standard operating procedures (SOPs) were followed.
