Migrant workers detained in Malaysia return home

The organisation had planned to assist the workers’ return in time for State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi’s 71st birthday on June 19 but the citizenship verification process was not finished in time.

U San Win, chair of Kepong Free Funeral Services, said they could assist about 250 detained Myanmar migrant workers based on donations they have received but will conduct the repatriations group by group, following embassy approval.

“We have already handed over all the donations to the embassy and the embassy arranged the plans. We are happy that we are able to assist them in their return home,” he said. (Courtesy of mmtimes.com)
