"What will happen to the society and economy of Malaysia if migrant workers no longer benefit from labour migration?" - a question arose amid the pandemic.

This episode is a part of the series focusing on COVID-19’s impact on migrant workers in their major destinations in East and Southeast Asia, following up the cross-regional joint research conducted as part of BEBESEA initiative in 2020.

Joined by Andika Ab. Wahab, a Fellow at the Institute of Malaysian & International Studies (IKMAS), National University of Malaysia (UKM), we hear about migrant workers' situations in Malaysia during the pandemic and latest developments.

COVID-19 & Migrant Workers Series is in collaboration with Hamburger Podcast by HRWG Indonesia and supported by the Sasakawa Peace Foundation.
