"Malaysia has, in principle, decided to hire a significant number of workers from Bangladesh. The country has also assured that proper wages, safety, and overall welfare of the workers will be ensured," Asif wrote in a post on his verified Facebook account.
Asif noted that the development followed a recent meeting between Expatriates’ Welfare and Overseas Employment Adviser Dr Asif Nazrul and senior officials of the Malaysian Ministry of Human Resources in Putrajaya, Malaysia.
Two key points discussed were the assurance of fair wages and benefits for existing Bangladeshi workers, and the formulation of a balanced framework for recruiting new workers under a transparent policy.
