Putrajaya nafi Malaysia rancang ambil 200,000 pekerja Bangladesh

Malaysia has refuted claims that the country plans to take in 200,000 Bangladeshi workers over the next six months. Fahmi Fadzil, a government spokesperson, said the allegation was made by a Bangladeshi minister and does not represent the official stance of the Malaysian government. The spokesperson also clarified that the statement was made by a deputy minister, not an official government position.

Earlier, the Deputy Minister for Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives of Bangladesh, Mir Shahe Alam, had claimed that Malaysia is planning to take in around 200,000 Bangladeshi workers in the next six months during a meeting with Malaysia's High Commissioner to Bangladesh, Shuhada Othman.
