MIGRANT WORKERS


& REFUGEES IN MALAYSIA



Despite the fact that Malaysia sits on the UN Council of Human Rights, Refugees
in Malaysia are denied the right to work and have no access to education. Access
to sufficient healthcare is also limited, and at a high cost. Many refugees in
Malaysia, particularly the Rohingya community, are stigmatized and face high
levels of xenophobia by a large number of Malaysians.
