KUALA LUMPUR, April 11 — The freezing of foreign workers’ applications would affect the country’s productivity and gross domestic products, the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers president Tan Sri Soh Thian Lai said.
“The government cannot make a flip-flop decision and make a sudden freeze on any government policy because this will affect the recruitment process, especially to the small and medium enterprises that are now starting to have better operation or sales,” he told reporters after the launching ceremony of Skill for Prosperity Programme in Malaysia here today.
“Those who paid out the quota and pay out the foreign wokers’ levy, they are given 18 months...So, in these 18 months, the government cannot cancel the quota but cancel those quotas who did not pay the levy.
