KUALA LUMPUR, June 21 — Kuala Lumpur City Hall had taken enforcement action against more than 1,500 foreign traders and workers at the Kuala Lumpur Wholesale Market between March and December, 2020 through a ‘whitening’ programme.
“DBKL had worked hard to ensure that foreign nationals no longer work at PBKL. Perhaps there are still individuals secretly hiring foreigners but sometimes, this could not be prevented. Khairul Anuar said the enforcement action taken against the foreign traders and workers had opened up business and employment opportunities for the locals affected by the Covid-19 pandemic or who lost their jobs due to it.
Meanwhile, Mahadi in his officiating speech said the new norms had resulted in the formation of the PBKL New Norm Economy Generating Task Force, besides the “whitening” of foreign workers at this wholesale market and taking action against employers involved in human trafficking.
