‘Actions against them who creating problem in manpower export to Malaysia`

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said that the government will take actions against those who are responsible for the recent failure to send migrant workers to Malaysia and are creating problems.

The Prime Minister said this while responding to a supplementary question from Opposition Chief Whip Mujibul Haque Chunnu during the question-answer session in the Jatiya Sangsad on Wednesday.

“We’re definitely investigating what problems occurred this time. If anyone is responsible, they will surely be tried,” she said.
In reply, the Prime Minister said the government had introduced special flights to send workers to Malaysia.

In the supplementary question, the JP lawmaker said the fate of many Malaysia-bound Bangladeshi workers are uncertain and some 17,000 workers couldn’t be sent by May 31 deadlines  despite having everything including permission ready for them.

He also highlighted the creation of a nexus in sending migrant workers to Malaysia saying that Malaysia receives manpower from 14 countries and in the case of all the countries except Bangladesh, all agencies having licenses can send manpower. In the case of only Bangladesh, several fixed agencies do it.
