    This document analyzes Malaysia's dependency on migrant workers by examining statistics on documented foreign workers by country of origin and sector. It finds that 39.2% of foreign workers are from Indonesia, while the manufacturing and construction sectors employ the most at 35% and 21% respectively. There is a ratio of 1 documented worker for every 2 undocumented workers. The government aims to reduce reliance on foreign labor but increasing levies could harm compliant employers. A comprehensive plan is needed to balance this objective with economic needs. Recommendations include incentives for legal employment and penalties for non-compliance. Limitations include lack of specific data and estimates being used.

    As Malaysia attempts to lessen its reliance on foreign


    workers and shift up the global value chain, the study
    looks comparatively through the government's decision on
    the Employer Mandatory Commitment (EMC) and
    industrial players’ feedback.

    A proposed levy hike is projected to set off superior


    automation, increase productivity and efficiencies,
    and reduce take-home pay repression among the
    native residents.

    Mr Low Kian Chuan


    (Secretary-General of
    the Associated
    Chinese Chambers of
    Commerce and
    Industry of Malaysia)
    • The proportion of lawful to illicit
    workers in the nation presently remains at
    1:2, which means there are two unlawful
    vagrant labourers for each legitimately
    enrolled workers here.
    Cont.

    “Third party point of


    views such as of
    certain economists
    and weekly column
    editors are also taken
    into consideration.

    ”
    FINDINGS / RESULTS :

    The government needs to have a comprehensive and well-rounded


    plan to attain their objectives.

    Without any appropriate ecosystem, the increase in levy hike would


    definitely harm employers who sign up legal and documented migrants the
    most while opening opportunities towards the illegal ones through the black
    market

    The raids carried out by the immigration department against


    unregistered foreign labourers have left numerous local developments in
    need of help and estates for all intents and purposes unattended to.
    CONCLUSION:

    A number of our economic sectors are excessively dependent


    on foreign labourers. Malaysian employers' reliance on foreign
    labourers has achieved a phase that an aggregate weaning
    from outside work is soundly inconceivable.
    RECOMMENDATIONS:

    To do this, a
    carrot-and-stick
    method should
    be employed;
    recognition and
    incentives could
    be offered to
    those who stick
    by the law.
    Cont.

    Suitable penalties are meted out to those who


    dodge it and employers discovered contracting
    or protecting overstayers or holders of fake
    visas and travel papers will have their bank
    accounts and assets seized or solidified.
    LIMITATION #1

    The undocumented data that cannot be proven


    as well no specific figures are mentioned in
    statements elaborating that many industries will
    suffer badly.
    LIMITATION
    #2

    Based on the merely


    estimation made by the
    Malaysian Employers
    Federation (MEF) in putting
    the total number of legal and
    illegal foreign labourers at
    six millions.
