SHAH ALAM: In purchasing Covid-19 vaccines for the state’s residents, the Selangor government will include the foreign workers’ need for vaccination against the virus.
Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said, in meeting that need, the state government planned to provide the vaccines at affordable prices, especially for factory operators who hired many foreign nationals.
“The state government will buy the vaccines, but we may sell these at a minimal price to the factories to ensure the foreign workers receive the vaccines.
“As the federal government is focusing on the local population, we will be focusing on the locals as well as the foreign workers in need of Covid-19 vaccination,” he told reporters after the announcement on the ‘Pakej Kita Selangor’ at his official residence, here, today.
