Co-operatives involved in plantations can take on foreign workers, says Noh Omar

KUALA LUMPUR: The Cabinet agreed on Tuesday (May 24) that co-operatives involved in the plantation sector will be given the opportunity to recruit foreign workers, effective immediately.

This was to enable co-operatives to be involved in the cultivation of food products such as corn, which was currently needed by the country to overcome the issue of shortage of chicken supply in the market.
