Madpet founder Charles Hector said as Malaysia only recognised legal and documented foreigners with a valid visa, refugees and asylum seekers who fall into the category of"illegal immigrants" need a clear law that grants recognition to them.
"As it stands, such asylum seekers and refugees at present do not have a right to work in Malaysia," he said. He lamented the deportation of Thai national Praphan Pipithnamporn who was accused by the Thai government of sedition for calling for a republic on social media. "The question will be whether Zakir, is considered an asylum seeker or refugee by Malaysia," he said.
