GEORGE TOWN: Educating companies on the dos and don’ts of treating foreign workers could help improve Malaysia’s ranking in the US State Department’s annual Trafficking in Persons Report, says Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association president Datuk Seri Wong Siew Hai.

Commenting on the fact that Malaysia had been placed on the lowest tier for the second year in a row, Wong said different industries handled issues in a different manner, but it was clear that Malaysia had to comply with the requirements set in the report.

“In the electronics industry, we have a much higher standard – we comply with what has been set. But there are other industries that are still not complying with the rules even when it comes to accommodation. “Among the ways to meet the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking is to educate companies on issues like withholding the passports of their foreign workers.

“When they ask us, we keep it for them. By helping them keep it, even if there is paperwork showing that they authorised the company to keep their passports, it is still not acceptable,” he added.
