Employers in a bind over maid work permit renewals

PETALING JAYA: Employers of maids are in a bind as they are unable to renew their work permits using the MyEG service platform and have to wait in long queues at Immigration Department offices instead.

Derrick, a senior executive from Subang Jaya, said he waited for three hours at the Selangor Immigration Department's headquarters in Shah Alam in June this year, only to be told he could not renew his maid's permit.
