Malaysia has rejected Nepal’s request to allow all government-licensed manpower agencies to recruit and send Nepali workers to the Southeast Asian country, insisting that it will retain its curated list of 25 primary agencies and 250 sub-agencies. In a diplomatic note to the Nepali government, Kuala Lumpur reaffirmed its commitment to the Foreign Workers Centralised Management System (FWCMS), under which recruitment agencies not included on the approved list will be barred from sending workers to Malaysia starting November 5.
