Monday, 06 Jul 2020 03:51 PM MYTForeign workers in Pudu who came into close contact with Covid-19 patients board a bus to the Teachers Education Institutions in Bangsar for quarantine May 15, 2020. — Picture by Yusof Mat Isa’s documentary on discrimination against undocumented migrants as being done with malicious intent as he slammed the blind accusations hurled against the country.
“This is to ensure that no individuals could enter the area in order to save them from getting infected. Moreover, every individual under the EMCO is screened, this also includes illegal migrants. In response, Ismail challenged Al Jazeera to list the name of countries in the world which gave “absolute freedom” to undocumented and illegal migrants.
Among others, Ismail Sabri said the report’s accusation of the government’s enforcement actions against foreigners being racially-charged was also untrue. “We don't abandon them and let them get infected and die. Those testing positive are treated at the Covid-19 quarantine and treatment centre at the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang until they fully recover before sending them back to the detention centre.
