Thumbs up for govt’s move


PETALING JAYA: Industry players have welcomed the Cabinet’s decision to provide free vaccination to documented and undocumented foreign workers but expressed concern over how the latter would be covered under the immunisation plan.

Federation of Manufacturers Malaysia (FMM) president Tan Sri Soh Thian Lai said FMM appreciates the government for including non-Malaysians, such as expatriates and foreign workers in the country, in the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme, saying that non-citizens also play an important role in supporting our economic activities and growth.
