Recently, Bloomberg published an in-depth investigation into the recruitment of Bangladeshi migrant workers into Malaysia, exposing how inflated fees, cartel-like recruitment structures and political protection have trapped thousands of workers in debt, exploitation and, in some cases, human trafficking.
The article explicitly names individuals linked to these cartels.
BFM speaks to Charles Santiago, the co-chair of Asean Parliamentarians for Human Rights, who was quoted in the article.
