Group wants foreign workers to live where they work


JOHOR BARU: Allowing foreign workers to live away from their workplace will not only lead to social issues but increased costs for businesses, says Johor Indian Muslim Entrepreneurs Association secretary Hussein Ibrahim.

He said Indian Muslim restaurants prefer to have their workers stay on the second floor of restaurants as it is cost-effective and easier to manage.
