Malaysia and Cambodia have signed two memoranda of understanding that will bring more manpower to Malaysia. The MOUs were signed during Malaysian Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s recent visit to Cambodia.
Human Resources Minister V. Sivakumar said the MoUs include training for workers from Cambodia , and efforts to help with their assimilation in the country of employment. “We have signed two memorandum of understanding during my working visit with the prime minister to Cambodia that will help boost manpower.
“The two MoUs were to bring in foreign workers in the formal and domestic sector,” he told reporters in Kuala Lumpur. He added that are currently 4,422 Cambodian foreign workers in Malaysia with 926 of them working in the domestic sector. “Although the number of Cambodian workers in the country is small, we hoped that with the signing of the MoUs, the number of foreign workers from Cambodia can be increased. “These foreign workers will be given training and exposure in their country before entering Malaysia so that they can assimilate and work properly here thus preventing any untoward incidents,” Sivakumar said.
