Underpaid,abused Banglahdeshi workers flee from employers, seek refuge at M'sian mission

More than 200 Bangladeshi migrant workers who claim that their employers underpaid and abused them have sought refuge outside their country's embassy in Malaysia. The Bangladesh High Commission has turned a section for its misson into a temporary shelter for some of the 225 workers, but most of them have been sheltering on the pavement since early this month due to a lack of space inside the premises.
