The Migrant Workers Right to Redress Coalition (MWR2R) has raised concerns over how institutionalised racism and xenophobia harmed migrant workers and refugees from top-down during the Covid-19 pandemic period.
In a virtual press conference, MWR2R spokesperson and social activist Adrian Pereira said the group received complaints on migrant workers who resided at one condominium that had to undergo testing for Covid-19.
All Access Plan
PETALING JAYA: Migrant workers, refugees, asylum seekers and foreign spouses should not be left out of the mass Covid-19 vaccination programme, says the Migrant Workers Right to Redress Coalition (MWR2R).
The coalition urged that as plans for the national Covid-19 vaccination exercise are being firmed up, the government should also make sure that the circumstances of every person are considered. This includes the situation facing documented workers, undocumented workers, workers in different sectors including domestic workers, all those within the refugee communities, foreign spouses, the stateless and others. Every effort needs to be made to ensure that all these people are able to access the vaccination programme and are not excluded on any basis, including by a possibility that they cannot afford it, said MWR2R in a virtual press conference on issues faced by migrant workers on Monday (Jan 25).
