The Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) has called for a fully digital foreign worker recruitment system in Malaysia to speed up approvals, provide clearer timelines, and reduce administrative hurdles. The MEF's president, Datuk Dr. Syed Hussain Syed Husman, welcomed the Ministry of Human Resources' move to make foreign worker recruitment applications fully online, stating that it could significantly improve efficiency, transparency, and convenience.
He emphasized that digitalization should not result in weaker requirements but should make compliance more efficient, predictable, and transparent.
