Migrant worker abuse noted overseas
I refer to the letter Migrant workers: Have a heart Immigration Dept . This is blatant class discrimination. What else is new?
We treat our guest workers worse than slaves. Our treatment of foreign professional workers from the Indian subcontinent is so infamous that when I went for an interview for a job in Down Under, I was being 'jeered' at by the head of department.
He recalled how Malaysians had degraded and abused some IT professionals from India in Bangsar several years ago. This was so embarrassing.
Our government has no idea that their actions will be taken note of overseas. So much for being a champion for developing countries.
In no time our unemployed graduates may need to venture overseas to India or China to look for work. Do we want to be treated the same way we treated our guest workers?
After all, what goes round comes around.
