Cutting middlemen out of foreign worker recruitment will boost Malaysia's image, says MEF

PETALING JAYA: Cutting third-party agents out of the foreign worker recruitment process will end modern slavery and uplift the image of Malaysian employers, says the Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF).

Its president Datuk Dr Syed Hussain Syed Husman said the decision by the Unity Government to stop using third-party agents was timely as employers were currently facing many other challenges in managing business costs.
