Business associations urge govt to extend foreign workers approval deadline

PETALING JAYA: The Federation of Malaysian Business Associations has appealed to the government to extend the entry deadline for foreign workers with approved Visa With Reference .

“FMBA requests that the Malaysian government extend the current arrival deadline for workers with approved VDRs to July 30,” said its chairman, Datuk Abdul Malik Abdullah. FMBA was also informed that there is a “significant lack of processing capability” at airports, even though the government should have expected a surge in foreign workers entering the country as the May 31 deadline loomed.

“FMBA urges the government to address these issues promptly to ensure that all workers are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve while entering the country,” he said.
