NSTnation “The next person to fill the post of minister must understand the plight of workers and their struggles to make ends meet.”
In congratulating the new appointment, MTUC president Datuk Abdul Halim Mansor said the prime minister has a lot to prove to the rakyat, and he can start doing so by appointing the right person as the Human Resources minister.
“And the consequences led to union-busting and weakened Malaysian unions, after seeing how IRA were rushed for approval through Parliament last October,” Halim said in a statement today. He said the new minister should start his job by figuring out how to bridge the widening income gap in the country.
“We truly hope for the Prime Minister to consider establishing this fund as a top priority to help workers who are taking home smaller pay packages.”
