Bangladesh Migrant MOU - Who Benefits?

Yesterday a Memorandum for Understanding was signed in Dhaka, between the Bangladesh’s Expatriates' Welfare and Overseas Employment Minister Nurul Islam and Malaysia's Human Resources Minister Datuk Seri Richard Riot Jaem. This agreement was called a G-2-G Plus deal. Today we ask what the Plus means, if the new recruitment system will bring an end to the problem of undocumented workers, the lack of government responsiveness to protests and also, who is going to benefit from this move.
