The unholy contributions of some local manpower exporting agencies to the current pangs of many Bangladeshi expatriate workers in Malaysia ought to be thoroughly investigated and those found responsible for the plight of the humanity in distress be given very harsh punishments. The current episode of workers having been harassed and cheated by some unscrupulous local manpower agents in connivance with a few, one or two, Malaysian manpower recruiting companies is tarnishing the image of both countries locally and internationally.
Whether the defaulters in this respect are active to spoil the friendly relations between the two Muslim--majority countries at the instigation of any third party ought to be also ascertained by their governments. Foreign agents find foul games easy to be played in an apparently fair condition, as in the climate of mutual trust and respect, which characterises Bangladesh-Malaysian relations.
