: There is no need to extend the registration of foreign workers by employers under the Recalibration Programme 2.0 , Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said.
“When an employer needs a foreign worker, they will apply for the quota from the Human Resources Ministry. When the quota is approved, they will pay a levy to the Immigration Department, and then apply for a Visa with Reference. He was commenting on employers pushing the government to rescind its decision to speed up the deadline of foreign worker registrations.
In other developments, Saifuddin recommended that all religious programmes at mosques throughout Ramadan be included with awareness on 3R issues, as many posts uploaded by individuals on social media touched on these issues, which could lead to legal action if reported to the authorities.

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said micro, small and medium entrepreneurs (MSME) at the village level should capitalise on this to explore more market opportunities overseas, including in Japan. Therefore, Ahmad Zahid, who is also Malaysia Halal Industry Development Council chairman, said the production of ingredients including for halal products under the programme would be integrated. “It (One Village One Product Programme) is already there but I am proposing that it be integrated because just one village is not sufficient (to produce products or ingredients). Maybe 50 to 100 villages should combine to produce the same product. “Not necessarily end products but ingredients too would be helpful because the demand is high and we should seize this opportunity
