PUTRAJAYA: Human Resources Minister Datuk Seri M. Saravanan will hold a meeting soon with companies that are subject to the export ban imposed by the United States Customs and Border Protection Department (US CBP).

He said the meeting would be held to discuss immediate action that could be taken to resolve allegations on forced labour in the country.

Saravanan said the ministry viewed seriously the ban imposed by US CBP on several local companies as it could tarnish the country's name and had instructed the Manpower Department to carry out an immediate investigation. The US CBP recently issued a Withhold Release Order on several local companies and seized oil palm products manufactured by Sime Darby Plantation Berhad and its subsidiaries. The order was also imposed on YTY Group's rubber glove products.
