Lim had earlier said that the reason for Top Glove’s detention order is likely the reimbursement needed to be given to workers who previously paid recruitment agent fees to get a job at Top Glove. When asked about losses due to the detention order, Lim said while selling price to the US is high, the selling price to other countries is still good.
He added that two weeks to a month is “nothing” as the US’ demand for disposable gloves is higher than what it currently has.
