The government has finalised some 99 health check-up centres for Nepali migrant workers going to Malaysia on the basis of the Malaysian government’s new health standard guideline that clarifies the medical requirements for migrant workers. But these centres will have to receive authentication from the Malaysian government before they can start different biometric works targeting Malaysia-bound Nepali workers.
These medical firms will have to wait for official authorisation from the Malaysian government, according to the Ministry of Labour, Employment and Social Security (MoLESS) that has claimed that the Malaysian government will soon authenticate these selected firms.
After the authentication by the Malaysian government, it is expected to help resume the flow of Nepali migrant workers to Malaysia, added the ministry that had stopped sending workers to Malaysia since last May after it cracked down on Immigration Security Clearance and One Stop Centre, which were levying additional charges on Nepali migrants for obtaining health certificates.
Though, the government move is blamed to have been motivated by the political differences as those health centres were related to the opposition party Nepali Congress (NC) representatives’ relatives, the ministry has been claiming that they have been charging extra charges. The dispute has, however, completely halted the outflow of Nepali migrant workers to South Eastern country that tops the chart as the most favoured destination.
Likewise, the government has also signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on the bilateral labour pact with Malaysian government last October, the process to send Nepali migrant workers to Malaysia has not resumed yet.
