PARLIAMENT | The Dewan Rakyat today passed the Gig Workers Bill 2025, a move Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi described as a crucial step toward ensuring social protection for more than 1.2 million Malaysians in the gig economy.

He said the bill reflects the Madani government’s commitment to formally recognise gig workers and protect them through structured social security, ending their long-standing marginalisation.
